Watch our home page for our next open house

The Historical Society offers periodic open houses at the Hosmer House, 300 Main Street, Acton, MA.  We are grateful to our volunteers who make themselves available to welcome visitors as well as to those who prepare the house for opening.  We are looking for more volunteers to help.  You do not need an extensive knowledge to volunteer, just an interest in Acton history!
