Benzie Historical Society

Our mission is to inspire people to explore the past! The Benzie Area Historical Society seeks to engage, educate, and entertain the public about Benzie County and the communities that border it through exhibits, museum programs and community outreach. In 2019, the Benzie Area Historical Society celebrated 50 years of collecting, preserving, interpreting, and sharing our history and our community’s strong support for our mission continues today as evidenced by our robust volunteer program.   That year our volunteers logged more than 8300 hours in their roles as docents, researchers, archivists and community educators.
