Educational outreach to people of all ages is a cornerstone of our Association.
Our three committees mount exhibits in the Academy Building highlighting and showcasing local history, heritage, art, natural history subjects, and nonprofit organizations.
Each committee co-sponsors programs with the Scoville Memorial Library, as well as other organizations, to bring a variety of programming to the community.
From time to time we organize special programs and events for the community. Included are Heritage Walks in the Housatonic Valley, tours providing overviews of Salisbury’s history, workshops, and forums on our natural resources.
The Association sponsors several programs that help local students better understand and appreciate Salisbury and its heritage. The Historical Society works with elementary teachers to add a hands-on component that lets students experience history in exciting ways. It also mentors middle-school students interested in the National History Day Contest. The Land Trust funds environmental education classes for students by Sharon Audubon’s staff.
