Benefits of Membership
 

The CONFERENCE of California Historical Societies was founded in 1954 as a federation of historical societies, museums, libraries, and other history-oriented groups and individuals.

CCHS helps historians, and others who are interested in history, to connect and share information -- joining efforts to preserve records, artifacts, sites, and buildings. CCHS helps local societies and small museums with skills in management, acquisition, preservation, and restoration techniques.

CCHS offers members an optional liability insurance policy designed to meet the special needs of history groups at low group rates. Members may also participate in various symposia and workshops offered several times throughout the year in locations alternating between Northern and Southern California.

In addition to all of the features above, members receive a year's subscription (4 issues) of the California HISTORIAN magazine. The publication offers how-to articles, previously unpublished historical material, book reviews, and news, views, and activities from every corner of the state.

Associate memberships are available. Associates receive the magazine and may participate in symposia and workshops.

In addition to membership, please consider donating to our Trust Fund.
