The Carlsbad Historical Society offers something for everyone by
hosting lectures, social events, trips, and tours for its members as well as local
students. Under the direction of the Carlsbad Historical Society, a
specially designed tour was developed to teach local third grade
students about local history. Each spring Carlsbad Historical Society
Docents greet third graders at our museum and provide information about Carlsbad that helps
teach students about life in the past.
Guides lead a tour for interested visitors through our historic
park gardens, giving insight and information about Carlsbad's
agricultural past.
December welcomes our Victorian Christmas Celebration. Utilizing local
native plant material, volunteers decorate the Shipley-Magee House in a manner similar to
the method of early Carlsbad residents.
The Carlsbad Historical Society sponsors a variety of guest lectures and
member tours of historic sites throughout the year. All events are open to the
public. Please call our office at (442) 500-4471 for a listing of
upcoming events.
