www.peabodyhistorical.orgFounded in 1896, the Peabody Historical Society & Museum is a center for the preservation, study and enjoyment of Peabody's cultural heritage. The Society's collections are of local and national significance and document over 300 years of the region's history. The Society maintains seven historic properties, including the Gideon Foster House and the Elizabeth Cassidy Art Museum & Peabody Art Association Gallery. In addition, the Society has an extensive library and archives, and a large collection of china, textiles, furniture and fine and decorative arts. The Society is supported by many dedicated volunteers and members, by generous contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations, and by the rental of the Smith Barn, located at the idyllic Felton-Smith Historic Site, adjacent to Peabody's Brooksby Farm
