Good to Know
Cornish is home to the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Park, one of New Hampshire's finest cultural destinations — the sculptor's home and studios are open throughout the summer.
Highlights
Expect livestock judging, 4-H exhibits, ox pulls, local food vendors, and the small New England village fair atmosphere that has barely changed in generations.
