Donate Today For more than 50 years, the Brea Historical Society has worked tirelessly to collect, preserve, and share the history of our city. Of course, as the community has grown, so too has the task of preservation. Digitizing our collections and properly archiving these artifacts are costly but necessary to ensure the public has access to our rich history. This is where you come in. We know you have a vested interest in the community, so we believe you will have an interest in seeing its history preserved. By supporting the Brea Historical Society, you are doing exactly that. We are committed to our mission and the educational programs, research studies, exhibitions, and workshops we offer are part of that commitment, but there is more to do. We cannot do this without you. We ask that you consider supporting the Brea Historical Society through any of the numerous programs available. Membership to the Brea Museum & Historical Society is perhaps the easiest way to support our preservation efforts.
