Acton Historical Alliance

Mission Statement

The Acton Historical Alliance is an independent alliance of Acton’s historical organizations which seek to advance awareness, understanding, and preservation of various aspects of Acton’s history. The mission of the Alliance is to be a source of support to the member organizations by fostering cooperation and collaboration where appropriate, particularly in the areas of education, celebration, and publicity, while recognizing the value of the independent missions and autonomy of the member organizations.

Vision Statement

The history of Acton extends from the distant and pre-recorded to the recent and well-documented.  Currently there are several local organizations dedicated to the study and preservation of various periods of this history.  The Acton Historical Alliance offers a conversational setting for these entities to share common areas of interest and overlap, to cooperatively develop methods to enhance history education, and to promote collaboration and mutual support. 


Member organizations currently include the Acton Historical Society, the Acton Memorial Library, the Acton Minutemen, Ironwork Farm, and the Friends of Pine Hawk.
