A History Speaks event.

Stories. Treasures. Discovery.

Step behind the scenes and explore the Upper Arlington Historical Society's ever-growing Archives collection—photographs, documents, artifacts, and memorabilia that tell the story of our community.

As Upper Arlington's foremost resource for local history, we continue to discover new stories through the items entrusted to us by community members. This is your chance to see how those objects are preserved, interpreted, and shared.

The event begins with a series of short presentations highlighting the stories behind selected artifacts and recent acquisitions, followed by a look inside our Archives and how we care for the collection. Many of our most significant items will be on display, and you'll have the opportunity to participate in a fun, hands-on activity that brings the collection to life.

Everyone is welcome. No registration is required. Attendees are encouraged to bring historical items to donate to the presentation!

Society members may reserve front-row seating. An invitation with reservation details will be emailed in the weeks leading up to the event.
