Labor Day began as a call to recognize the people whose work built, sustained, and strengthened their communities. The first Labor Day celebration took place in New York City in 1882, when workers gathered in a parade organized by labor advocates to make their contributions visible. By 1894, the first Monday in September had become a federal holiday honoring American workers.

At the Palmer Warner House, preservation carries that same spirit forward. Historic preservation depends on skilled and dedicated labor: carpenters and craftspeople who repair historic fabric; researchers who uncover overlooked stories; staff and volunteers who care for collections; and community members who help ensure that historic places remain open, relevant, and welcoming.

Historic homes also remind us that the past was made through work—by the people who built homes, tended land, prepared meals, cared for families, made repairs, and carried out the many daily tasks that made a household possible.

This Labor Day, we honor the workers of the past and the preservation workers of today. Their labor helps protect the stories, places, and heritage we share.
Happy Labor Day from the Palmer Warner House.

As we prepare for our 2026 Pipes and C***r event, coming up on September 12th, we’d like to highlight some of wonderful organizations that will be joining us. Frederic Palmer was extremely proud of his Scottish heritage, and turned a home built in 1738 into the Palmer-Warner House, which he lovingly called Dunstaffnage as a nod to his Scottish heritage. .

To honor Frederic, and his Scottish pride, of course we need some talented pipers and drummers!

Mystic Pipes And Drums was founded in 2019 by pipers and drummers from southeastern CT. Performing at parades, festivals, competitions, and private events, we are also a grade five competition band.

The MPBA Bagpipe Band got its start in July 2012 when a determined group of active and retired Middletown Police officers decided to pick up bagpipes—despite not having the slightest clue how to play them (or, in some cases, any instrument at all). What started as a bold leap of faith quickly turned into a passionate pursuit of music, tradition, and community.

Stay tuned for more details and plan to join us from 12 to 4pm!
