Support the Bohemia Historical Society
Help Us Keep Bohemia’s History Alive
Bohemia isn’t just a name on a map — it’s a community built by real people. Czech settlers who crossed an ocean and planted roots on Long Island. Cigar makers who filled our streets with the smell of their craft. Farmers, families, and neighbors who shaped this town into what it is today.
The Bohemia Historical Society exists to make sure their stories are never forgotten. We’re a 100% volunteer-driven, donor-supported nonprofit — no guaranteed grants, no government line items. Just people who love this town and want to preserve it.
Your Donation at Work
When you give to BHS, your donation goes directly to work:
🏛️ Keeping the Museum Open
Keeping the lights on at our museum on Locust Avenue.
📜 Protecting Our Archives
Purchasing archival materials to protect our aging photographs, maps, and documents.
🎓 Funding Scholarships
Funding our annual scholarships for local high school seniors.
💾 Digitizing Family Histories
Digitizing family histories so future generations can find them online.
It’s not glamorous work. But it matters deeply. Whether you give $25 or $500, you’re helping ensure that the next kid who grows up in Bohemia can learn where their town came from — and feel proud of it.
