Chilkat Valley Historical Society

Purpose & Activities

The Chilkat Valley Historical Society was formed in 1975 to "discover, collect and provide for the preservation and display of any material which may help to establish the historical background of Alaska, especially of Haines and the adjoining geographical and ethnic areas."

 The Historical Society is closely allied with the Sheldon Museum and Cultural Center.  It underwrites the weekly Sheldon Museum vignettes of local history talks on KHNS radio station.  It also sponsors a Friday noon Brown Bag Lunch program throughout the winter.  A schedule of these weekly history programs may be found on our Calendar page.

 The Chilkat Valley Historical Society meets quarterly and at that time presents a program or speaker with an historic theme.  Our summer meeting is usually a picnic.  The Board of Directors meets monthly.
