Hanford Mills Museum is continuing its ‘Explore More!’ Regional Promotions program in 2026, building on 5 years of local impact. The program, originally implemented in the summer of 2021 to support the promotion of our regional assets, provides information about ‘more’ things to do in our region, including: places to visit and things to see; where to find food & provisions; and local treasures for retail shopping. In 2022, calendar event promotions were added to the program. In 2026, the program will continue through the Hanford Mills Museum with support from the Delaware County Tourism Development Grant. The program, now in its sixth year, will again be administered by Susan O’Handley, Central NY Mobile Marketing, on behalf of Hanford Mills Museum.
Hanford Mills Museum invites regional businesses and organizations to participate in the 2026 Explore More! Program. The exploremore.hanfordmills.org website is dedicated to enhancing the visibility of partners and their events, providing meaningful area resources for community members, business partners and tourism guests. Directly connected to the hanfordmills.org website, Explore More program partners also receive expanded visibility through search and display ads through the museum’s GoogleAds program for non-profits.
New businesses and organizations can apply to participate at the Hanford Mills Museum website at the link below. New applications and partner updates are accepted on an ongoing basis throughout the season. A small annual contribution is suggested in order to leverage matching funds and strengthen the reach of the digital program in the future. For more information, please contact Susan at susan@cnymm.com.
