Every year we count on people like you to give unrestricted operating support so that we can carry out our mission of being the premier interpreter of the events of April 1775, and the faithful steward of all the town’s history through time. This is no static task.

• We continually add to our collection, accessioning objects and ephemera that illustrate the history that is being made today.

• We regularly refresh our museums’ interpretation to reflect and engage our diverse Lexington and global communities.

• We, like all property owners, constantly repair and maintain our historic buildings.

• Every year, we offer over 50 programs and events which make history come alive!

We are more ambitious than ever by increasing the number of temporary exhibitions we present each year, showcasing more of our collection and telling more stories of Lexington. We are adding multi-sensory interpretive elements to our museums, making our museums more welcoming to visitors of all learning styles and abilities. We have expanded our robust schedule of programs and events so that there is something for everyone who is curious about history.

All this is made possible because of generous donors like you!
