What To Know About Hanover, New Hampshire

The College’s presence, along with the associate Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, adds world-class cultural, lifestyle, and healthcare amenities to the small-town vibe. The Hopkins Center for the Arts offers film, dance and theatrical productions, and the Hood Museum of Art is a renowned college art museum housing a collection drawn from a wide range of cultures and historical periods. Recreation opportunities abound, from exploring the Connecticut River via the Ledyard Canoe Club to skiing the slopes at the nearby Dartmouth Skiway. And undergrads aren’t the only beneficiaries of educational opportunities at Dartmouth; The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute features programming in history, art, science and much more. The Dresden School District, the interstate school district serving both Hanover and Norwich, Vermont, was the first, and remains one of the few, interstate school districts in the nation.
