South Sebastian County Historical Society ... About us


	The South Sebastian County Historical Society was organized on February 24, 1963. The original purpose of the Society was the preservation and marking of local landmarks, compiling and preservation of dates concerning past events of local interest; the establishment of a museum to house mementos of the area and times; and to publish a periodical which would remain a legacy for future generations. All of these goals continue to be met. With approximately 250 annual members, the group has expanded from the original Old Jail museum to a historical district located on the southeast corner of the Greenwood town square. The Key periodical has been published continuously since 1966. Members have been eager to share the local history with local citizens, school children and tourists with a variety of programs throughout the year. During Arkansas History Month classes are invited to tour the district with SSCHS volunteers. Memberships run from January 1 to December 31 each year. Annual individual membership is $15, family membership is $25, supporting membership is $50, contributing membership is $100 and life membership is $250. Membership includes annual copies of The Key.
