KEY PENINSULA HISTORIC SOCIETY

The mission of the Key Peninsula Historic Society is to gather, record, preserve and disseminate information about the history of the Pierce County area generally known as the "Key Peninsula" so that succeeding generations of residents will have a firm and accurate record from its earliest inhabitants, early exploration, and settlement, to the present time. To this end, we collect historic memorabilia from members and friends of the museum, engage with the local elementary schools to provide hands-on history learning at the museum or online, present talks to organizations, and sell books about the history of the Key Peninsula. We also promote the museum's collection and display using our website, by staffing a booth at local community events, and participating in STREAM nights at the local elementary schools.
