About Us:

To collect, preserve and present the history and culture of the people of Wilmette in an enjoyable learning environment. Through our programs, exhibits, publications, research facilities and many other services, we seek to inspire visitors from this community and others to discover the many fascinations of local history.

The Wilmette Historical Museum is dedicated to encouraging the appreciation of Wilmette's past. By exploring, preserving, and sharing the history of Wilmette and the surrounding area, the Museum seeks to find and tell our community's stories, and to connect those stories to the wider contexts of Chicago, Illinois, and American history. The Museum is operated by the Wilmette Historical Society, a volunteer organization devoted to promoting local history, and by the Village of Wilmette.
