The Society owns and maintains two buildings. In 1993, the Historic 1876 brick Marbletown Schoolhouse was acquired as a gift from the Marbletown Neighborhood Center. The museum was purchased in 1997.
The members meet quarterly, highlighted by a special Annual Meeting and Dinner in the spring. An informative newsletter is issued in advance of each meeting.
The Newark-Arcadia Historical Society’s list of achievements is impressive. Educational programs and tours, all open to the public, have been very successful and well received. A number of tours have been held since October 1997, including historic houses, barns and cemeteries. The society holds an annual old-fashioned strawberry social with live music in June of each year.
We hope you will visit the museum soon or consider joining the historical society!
