Find the Best Things

Gary Historical And Cultural Society Inc

OUR MISSION:

The Gary Historical & Cultural Society, Inc. (GHCS) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization founded in 1976 - our country's bicentennial year. Our mission is to "uplift and enrich the Gary, Indiana and surrounding communities by preserving, developing and sponsoring cultural, historical & educational programs for citizens of all ages." GHCS was a catalyst behind the preservation and national historic landmark status of Gary's first building - The Gary Land Company Building (built in 1906 and pictured above on the right). GHCS preserved and re-dedicated this building in 1984, and presently maintains it as an historical museum and visitor's bureau for school tour groups and visitors to our City of Gary. 


OUR GOALS:

Our goals include promoting civic pride and developing future "Positive Citizens" and one avenue to help us achieve this goal is to support the Gary Civic Symphony Orchestra.
