Inspiration. Education. Exploration. Recognition. Action.
Last year, through the generosity of individuals like you, the History Center was able to bring to life the York County experience for more than 26,500 onsite visitors through programs, exhibits and activities.
Contributions to our Annual Fund enabled us to:
Maintain and research our growing collection of more than 300,000 York County artifacts and documents, including 8,800 genealogical records, more than 10,000 pieces of York-produced Pfaltzgraff pottery, and an airplane! Bring to life new and inspiring artifacts, exhibits and collections, like the Squirrel Tail Bake Oven, Reddy Kilowatt, The Fiery Trial and Civil War Letters from Home. Connect adults, students and their families with York County culture and history through 50 education programs: including the Second Saturday lecture series, Lunch with the Librarians and Family Day.
Celebration!
Help us celebrate our collective York County history by making a contribution to our Annual Fund. Your gift this year of $25, $50, $100 or more will ensure that families and individuals, students and visitors, can continue to explore, learn and share the stories that make us a vibrant community.
