Historical Society Gift Shop Undergoing Makeover

The gift shop at the Westport Historical Society has suspended operations while it undergoes a makeover. Formally known as The Remarkable Gift Shop, using the name taken over from the iconic Remarkable Book Shop on Main Street, the shop will reopen in the spring with a new design and a café with outdoor benches and tables, said Ramin Ganeshram, executive director.
