Welcome to 2026

Thanks to all our members and the Takoma Park community for your support in 2025. We’re looking forward to an exciting year in 2026. We’ve got lectures, tours, social events, and more planned for the year. And some new window exhibits at our Carroll Avenue storefront. You’ll find details here, in our monthly newsletter, posts on social media, and elsewhere. Here’s a sneak preview of some coming attractions…..

• January – Author talk by local architect Carl Elefante
• February – Happy Hour social; talk about Frederick Douglass in Takoma Park by local historian Ezra Greenspan
• March – Talk on the History of Montgomery College by Historic Takoma archivist and historian Jim Douglas; talk on architectural styles in Takoma Park by Preservation Maryland
• May – the annual House and Garden Tour

Our Reading Room remains open the first and third Sundays of each month, from 1:00 – 4:00 PM. It’s a great time to stop by to browse archives and research library and chat about local history.

Please support our work by renewing your membership or becoming a member. Your support makes it possible to sponsor these events and support research into local history. Visit our online store for more details.
