Connecting People through the Power of Arizona’s History
The Arizona Historical Society is embarking on a new chapter in its history. Our freshly-launched mission statement, “Connecting people through the power of Arizona’s history,” communicates our commitment to engaging with people to share the excitement, lessons and power of our collective history. Similarly, our new vision statement, “To be the driving force strengthening Arizona’s communities by promoting history through leadership, partnership, and scholarship,” demonstrates our role and responsibility as the leader in Arizona history.
Over the next few months we will share more details about the changes that are underway. We hope you will share in our excitement as we write the next chapters of the Arizona Historical Society story.
