Wise County Historical Society, Inc.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Our next event is coming up on October 26, 2024! Be sure to join us!

The Wise County Historical Commission meets quarterly.  Please check our Calendar of Events for upcoming dates. Other events will be dedications for Texas Historical Commission (THC) markers as well as Fall and Spring historic tours.  

The Wise County Historical Society, Inc. meets on the fourth Thursday of each month.  We do not have meetings in the month of August or December due to vacation and holidays.  In November, we meet the third Thursday so as not coincide with Thanksgiving Day.

We will also be planning fund raising activities so that we may reclaim and rebuild our museum.  Please contribute at any time.  Just find the DONATE link on our website!
