These five men had the foresight to create a place to preserve and share our local history. Over the years\, the museum’s role in the community has grown significantly. Through educational programming and outreach\, as well as curation activities\, the museum: \n\n\n‌Provides a place for family-focused cultural enrichment \n\n\nCreates and strengthens community identity \n\n\nInstills a sense of community pride and ownership \n\n\nEmbodies our unique sense of place \n\n\nPreserves our collective memory \n\n\nToday\, the Hancock Historical Museum is the only nonprofit organization preserving and sharing our community’s rich heritage\, Annual attendance at the museum\, special events\, and outreach programming nears 25\,000 people\, including more than 4\,000 Hancock County schoolchildren. \n​The museum began with the acquisition of the Hull-Flater House at 422 West Sandusky Street\, and first opened to the public in 1971. The house was built in 1881 by Jasper Hull\, co-founder of the Findlay Artificial Gas and Light Company\, and was one of the grandest homes of the day. Today\, the home still serves as the welcoming “front porch” of an expansive development that has grown to nine facilities\, including the Little Red Schoolhouse and the new Marathon Energy & Transportation Annex. In addition to an expansive campus\, the museum houses more than 70\,000 books\, photographs\, manuscripts and artifacts in its collections. Without the efforts of the Hancock Historical Museum\, we would lose many of the stories\, buildings\, memories and treasures – and the lessons they hold – for future generations. \nPlan your visit! Click here to learn more about its mission\, things to see\, and more. \nTake advantage of this unique opportunity to explore new educational experiences with your family. We look forward to seeing our members enjoy the exciting exhibits and activities at the Hancock Historical Museum this May!
