New Holland Band Museum
Bringing Music to Life Since 1829
The New Holland Band Museum housed one of the most impressive displays of band memorabilia in the nation.
Founded in 1980 by Arthur Futer, renowned historian, Indian archaeologist and noted percussionist with the New
Holland Band, the museum featured hundreds of musical instruments from 1620 to present day, photographs dating
from the 1800s, original uniforms, music, and equipment. We are proud to announce that the museum is in the process
of being transferred to the New Holland Area Historical Society located at 201 East Main Street in New Holland,
Pennsylvania.
We hope you will mark your calendar and join us for a drop-in reception on Sunday afternoon, May 18, from 2 to 4
pm celebrating the transfer of the New Holland Band Museum to the New Holland Area Historical Society. This will be
held in the Steve Loewen Community Room on the first floor of the Museum on Main building.
We would like to thank the following organizations for their generous support of our mission . . .
