SUPPORT OUR MISSION
DONATE TODAY!
The Octagon Hall Foundation is a 501-C Non-Profit. Its mission is the historical preservation of the Octagon Hall Museum, surrounding buildings, and property for the next generations to experience. We are run by a volunteer staff that is fueled by a labor of love. Many schools bring children on field trips, locals, as well as tourists visit Octagon Hall yearly and we want to make sure to keep that happening for years to come. In March 2023 the original barn was damaged by straight line winds, we are currently at risk of losing it. The Octagon Hall Foundation receives no assistance from any state or federal agencies, it solely relies on donations from fund raising events and historical tours. All donations go back to preserving Octagon Hall. Thank you for your donation and continued support.
