The Greater Loveland Historical Society's mission is "to collect, preserve and display historical information pertinent to the Greater Loveland, Ohio area, be regarded as a local authority on historical designation, serve as curator of locally significant art, and foster within our community an appreciation and curiosity regarding our area's past." "Through a combination of permanent exhibits, special presentations, and educational facilities," the Greater Loveland Historical Society "encourages guests to step back in time, discover the lives of Ohio's pioneers, explore Victorian-era comfort, and learn about the changes that time, innovation, and the industrial revolution brought to this early suburb and rural escape." The museum is open: March-December

Affiliate Member: Elizabeth Harvey Free Black School / Harveysburg Community Historical Society11/18/2023  Established in 1831 in Harveysburg, the Elizabeth Harvey Free Black School was the first free school for African American children in Ohio. In 1976, the Harveysburg Bicentennial Committee acquired the building and restored it. The building is now the home of the Harveysburg Community Historical Society and their community museum.
 Since its establishment in January of 1979, the Mason Historical Society has worked hard to preserve and share the humble beginnings of Mason, Ohio. Starting with only 26 members, the Mason Historical Society has grown tremendously and now takes pride in its treasure, the Alverta Green Museum. The Victorian house built in 1890 was deeded to the Society in January 1987 by Alverta Green, a longtime Mason resident and local antique dealer, just a few months before she died. The museum showcases various artifacts from Mason's great history, taking viewers on a journey back in time. Members and volunteers of the Society dedicate their time to preserve the 200 year history and heritage of Mason, and at the same time create and promote new interest in that history and heritage.
