$15 for 15 Liberty! Our Facebook Fundraiser
Have you enjoyed our local history FB posts or the socially distant walking tours? It’s all about keeping the history ALIVE! We weren’t able to have our usual fundraisers this year, but we still have to maintain our buildings, so we hope you will show your support by making an online donation on our FB page under the $15 for 15 Liberty! fundraiser.
Efforts to renovate our office and exhibit rooms at the Old Fire Hall (15 Liberty St.) are ongoing, despite COVID challenges. We want to be ready to host speakers, historical programs, special events, parties… as soon as current events allow — but we need your help.
By donating this small amount, you can show your love for our local lore and help us renovate this grand old building into a centerpiece of our community.
We have over 1800 FB followers, so if everyone gave just $15 that would be the biggest fundraiser we have ever had! If you cannot afford to give, please share this with your friends instead. Memorial gifts gratefully accepted.

SOCIALLY DISTANT PROGRAMMING for 2020 - follow our Facebook posts, or take one of our walks - honoring our local veterans and suffragists or to learn the histories of downtown buildings. Find information on our Events page.
The Arcade Historical Society's two buildings - the Gibby House and the Old Fire Hall -
do not have regular public hours until further notice due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will post fun
history stories on our Facebook page and use that forum and this website to let you know when
we will be opening up again. Stay safe and healthy while we are making history every day!
