Glendale Arizona Historical Society
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE STAFF
The office staff have reopened the office at Sahuaro Ranch Park in the Guest House with hours:
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 10:00AM-1:00PM.
We are doing limited tours by appointment only. The City is not opening the Main House this Fall. Manistee tours start in Oct. on the 1st and 3rd Sat.
If you have not paid your membership dues for this year, it would be appreciated. Without our weddings income for the past year our budget is hurting.
Honoring the Proud History of Glendale, Arizona
OUR MISSION
To promote public awareness and appreciation of the history of Glendale and the surrounding region, the Glendale Arizona Historical Society collects, preserves and interprets documentary material and material objects. It disseminates historical information and supports scholarly research.
The society fosters interest in the past, formal historical inquiry and informal information exchanges, believing that an understanding of the past illuminates the present and gives vision for the future.
Founded in 1973, the Glendale Arizona Historical Society is dedicated to the historic preservation in Glendale, including: collecting and preserving artifacts, photographs, oral histories, written materials; researching Glendale's histories, buildings, people and lifestyles; and disseminating information about Glendale's history.
