Welcome!
Membership in The Historical Society of Ottawa is open to all. We are students, researchers, authors, retired people and working people from all walks of life and backgrounds. We are a diverse group with one thing in common—a love of history, especially Ottawa history!
By becoming a member of The Historical Society of Ottawa, you are contributing to the preservation and sharing of Ottawa’s rich historical heritage.
Your membership fees and donations help fund the many activities of the Society which include our popular series of afternoon and evening presentations, our support of youth through our awards programs, the publication of historical research, and other Society activities.
Members also receive, free of charge, a print-copy of current Bytown Pamphlets published by the Society, as well as the quarterly newsletter, the Capital Chronicle. As an added bonus, members receive special pricing on Society sponsored books and activities.
Best of all, membership provides an opportunity to join with others who have a passion for Ottawa history! Regular outings are organized for members and guests to places of historical interest in the Ottawa Valley. Members receive special pricing on all of our outings.
To allow persons on a budget to join the Historical Society of Ottawa and to participate fully in the Society’s activities, a Bursary Fund has been established to reduce membership fees and other expenses.
