Mission Statement

The mission of the Westborough Historical Society is to serve the community by preserving and sharing our local history. 

Our Vision is to:

  • Maintain a collection of historic local artifacts and documents that connect Westborough's present to its past;
  • Provide monthly accessible, engaging and content-rich programs;
  • Partner with local organizations to enhance historical perspectives and build community pride;
  • Use our resources to inspire local students and foster their historical understanding; and
  • Promote interest in Westborough by sharing historical stories that are unique to our town.

Join our History Book Group!

Here is the Fall read for the WHS History Book Group. We will meet and discuss this book this Fall, meeting date to be announced. A non-fiction history book by Nathaniel Philbrick retraces George Washington's early road trips to help unite citizens and to convince them they were one people - Americans! The Book Group meets at the Sibley House, 13 Parkman Street.

Tuesday October 6, at 7:00 pm.
Abigail Adams and the Daughters of Liberty
The year is 1774. First Lady Abigail Adams invites a group of women to Plymouth, among them author Mercy Otis Warren, poet Phillis Wheatley, and patriot Deborah Sampson. The audience is part of the meeting where, following the presentation, historian Carol Cohen provides a close-up look at several members of the Daughters of Liberty, focusing on the important contributions they made to Independence.
Venue: 13 Parkman Street, Westborough, MA 01581
The program is free and open to all.
