About the eventGive Back Day - Port Washington Historical Society
Every month I am giving local not for profits the opportunity to partner for a day and 10% of all sales will be donated back to that organization.
This month is the Port Washington Historical Society. Mission: The Port Washington Historical Society preserves and shares community history that connects the past to the present with a view to the future.
The Port Washington Historical Society was founded in 1991. Over the years the organization has demonstrated its strong volunteer commitment as a non-profit educational organization dedicated to the preservation, advancement and dissemination of the history of the Port Washington area.
From 2000 to 2003 the Port Washington Historical Society restored and now maintains the Port Washington 1860 Light Station. Overlooking downtown Port Washington, the Light Station includes replica lightkeeper's quarters and a lantern tower.
In 2012, the Port Washington Historical Society purchased the historic 1852 Barnum Blake building in downtown Port Washington and embarked upon a restoration of the property. With restoration complete in 2014, the building became the Resource Center housing the Society’s archives, research areas and offices.
