The Glencoe Historical Society
Every community needs to retain archives and artifacts to document the history and legacy of its contribution to American life. In Glencoe, the GHS fulfills this role. Staffed solely by dedicated volunteers, the GHS also educates adults and families in the village through award winning programming and exhibits at our museum campus at 375 and 377 Park Avenue.
Great communities are built by the people of the past and the present. It is through the Glencoe Historical Society that Glencoe learns of its heritage and its triumphs and, hopefully, learns from its mistakes. You can learn more about GHS by visiting our website at www.glencoehistory.org.
