Through collections, research, exhibits, and public programs, the Society works to ensure that the city’s story—its places, people, and everyday experiences—is not lost as the community continues to grow.
The Society serves residents, researchers, students, and visitors interested in understanding how Palm Coast developed and how its history connects to the broader story of the region. By making historical materials accessible and encouraging curiosity about the past, the Society supports a deeper appreciation of the city’s identity and heritage.
