Learn more about the local, rural history in and around Arcade, New York at the Arcade Historical Society, located next to the Pioneer Arcade Elementary School on West Main Street. The Society was formed in 1957 for the 150th anniversary of the settlement of the town and collects and preserves objects and materials that illustrate the history of the town of Arcade and the surrounding area.
Please note, we will be CLOSED June 7, 11 and 14 due to school visits.
Our next exhibit: "Meet the Gibbys"
