Once the hat-making capital of New York State, Beacon has reinvented itself as a center for the arts, cuisine, outdoor recreation and so much more. The city's rich history is key to its charm, and visitors are welcome to explore it all at the headquarters of the Beacon Historical Society. Learn more about Beacon's people and places through extensive collections, exciting events and special exhibits. The all-volunteer society hosts monthly meetings on topics of local history and offers research assistance. Check out their website and social media pages for details on current events.
