Hempstead County Historical Society
Hempstead County Historical Meeting to be held Tuesday
Did you know that this year Hope, Arkansas has been in existence for 150 years? Come learn about some upcoming events that the Historical society has plans for this year as part of the celebration.  As part of the meeting hear local historian, Keenan Williams, talk about early downtown Hope as he showcases a large panoramic photo of Hope that was taken in 1916. Many of the buildings in the photograph are still standing today and are part of the downtown landscape.

The Hempstead County Historical Society will meet on Tuesday evening January 28, 2025 at the Tailgaters Burger Company Annex Room in Hope, Arkansas at 7pm. The room is located at 101 South Main Street. Everyone is welcome.

The Historical Society seeks to bring awareness to the rich heritage and history of Hempstead County. Come and share your history with us.

If you have any questions concerning the event itself call 870-703-8256 or email hempsteadhistory@gmail.com.
