PUBLIC HEARING ON JOHN OSBORN HOMESTEAD MARCH 19TH, 6:00 PM
Our "dream team" consists of long-time residents who are passionate about historical preservation, and committed to Wainscott's rich and distinctive history and character, both built and natural. We welcome our community's interest, participation and feedback to help achieve our mission and goals.

In 2021, a small group of concerned citizens saved the "Little House" on Wainscott Hollow Road and, seeing the need for energetic preservation work to counter increasing threats to the unique historic and scenic character of Wainscott, the charitable organization was founded to protect and preserve Wainscott's heritage.

Wainscott Heritage Project was formed to preserve the history and cultural character of Wainscott by protecting its historic structures and significant viewsheds, and to encourage programs that foster and maintain an appreciation for the hamlet's traditions and sense of community.
Your contributions support our preservation efforts and enable us to meet our first goal of many: to rebuild the Little House. Any amount you can give helps to fund our mission.

East Hampton Town’s $56 million acquisition of the 28-acre parcel at 66 Wainscott Main Street is a historic victory.
But as the Town Board finalizes the Management Plan, Wainscott Heritage Project (WHP) is concerned that the current draft risks the very "Open Space" and "Historic Places" which this site was bought to protect.
