Overview
Here in Cambridge, we don’t do history for history’s sake. It isn’t enough to present history as events that happened. We need to dig deeper, and answer “so what?” and “who cares?” Our humanities-focused approach to tackling contemporary issues through conversation and perspective-taking is one we’re proud of. History Cambridge was originally founded as Cambridge Historical Society in 1905. In 2021 we took a new direction and reinvented ourselves with a new name and a new mission: We engage with our city to explore how the past influences the present in order to shape a better future. Make history with us.
