We are a community-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization of local, enthusiastic volunteers. All volunteers. We organize and hold fundraisers, community-building events, educational activities and support other local organizations, all as stewards of our collective local history and future. Our members donate time, food, wood, supplies and inspiration. A few more members would be great.
Are you passionate about Bakersfield? Have something you think should be in the collection? Let us know! We welcome items in decent condition that reflect the history of the town and particularly our historic buildings. Even an old postcard! We are always looking for new faces too, to fulfill the vision of Bakersfield as a thriving, historically interesting place to live and enjoy. We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you. Meanwhile, please consider membership!
Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, buying a second ice cream cone, donating a little extra in your membership dues, or spreading our mission through word-of-mouth, thank you. We can not accomplish our goals without the help of supporters like you.
The Bakersfield Historical Society is a non-profit 501(C)3 corporation. Gifts and memberships above
the family level are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. You can increase the level of your
support too, if your employer has a matching grant program.
