• Go through the archway to the Upper Millyard between 7 Market Square and the Counting House.

From the Friend Street Parking Lot:

  • Go down the staircase near Newburyport Savings Bank and cross the bridge over the river. The IHC is straight ahead, next to Flatbread Pizza. If you cross the bridge near Bluemoon Cafe, follow the brick path around the corner to the right and into the millyard. We will be on the left, just past the mural.
