Support Us

Since its founding, the Brown County Historical Society has relied on the support of individuals who believe in the value of history and the importance of Brown Counties stories. Your membership, donation, and volunteer efforts help the BCHS fulfill its mission to inspire and foster a life-long interest in history through its exhibitions, programs, and collections.

Without you, we wouldn't be able to:

Care for our collection, our building, and our grounds.
Create award-winning exhibits and educational programs that engage and entertain.
Provide the knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff who greet you at the Front Desk, help you in the Research Library, lead your guided tour, care for our collection, develop our exhibits, and keep the BCHS running!

The Brown County Historical Society, a 501(c)3 tax exempt organization, relies on contributions from individuals, foundations, businesses, and corporations to fund our operations and services. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation, please print and fill out the form below or call the 507-233-2616.
