Bethel Historical Society
Founded in 1960, The Bethel Historical Society both catalogs and archives our city's grand history while consistently providing events and opportunities to make certain that the past does not remain a distant and out-of-reach era, but a lively and integral part of our modern day.From the annual Children's Victorian Christmas Tea Party & Laura Ingalls Wilder celebrations, to the ever popular Antique Appraisal Days, Halloween events such as our Ghost Tour through Bethel, an annual PT Barnum birthday celebration complete with crazy hat contest, a Colonial Kids Summer Camp and unique events such as the opening of the 1912 Cornerstone and Time Capsule from the building at 84 Greenwood Avenue (Masonic Temple), we regularly offer programming that both educates and entertains.This past year we completed our 20th Annual Historic Walking Tour of Bethel for all Bethel 2nd graders. We have also produced the films And the Swans Still Swim about the history of the Stony Hill Inn and Home Town Victory about the surviving WWII veterans of Bethel. In September 2010, we were pleased to present Bethel with a life-size bronze of P.T. Barnum. We want to make Bethel a destination point and we need your support as a member to help in this effort.
