TAKE YOUR INTEREST IN ALBERTA HISTORY TO THE NEXT LEVEL
Since 1907, the Historical Society of Alberta has supported individual researchers, authors and those who wish to know more about our history. We continue to advocate for Alberta’s history and work in partnership with other like-minded organizations and groups.
As a member of HSA, you will be part of one of our five local chapters. Each chapter, organized by a volunteer board, develops and runs programs that highlight the history unique to its region as well as events of provincial and national interest for our members and the general public.
It is our privilege to share, write and collect the stories of our ancestors with the people of Alberta so they can get involved and discover their own stories. Our publications welcome submissions of articles and stories discovered from your own research of family and communties across our province.
If you are looking for support or looking for a partner, reach out to us. How can we work together to promote our history?
