Membership

Why join

Since 1976, the Steveston Historical Society has worked to preserve and share the history of Steveston. Members make that work possible.

  • Your membership helps fund our programs, walking tours and heritage projects.
  • You have a say in how the Society is run, and can stand for its board.
  • You hear about what’s coming up, and ways to get involved, before most people do.

Every membership includes

  • A vote at our Annual General Meeting and any special meetings
  • Advance notice of events
  • Our monthly e-newsletter

Plus the member benefits below.

More for members

We’re growing what membership offers. Here’s what members can look forward to:

  • A membership card with your name, your member number and the year you joined.
  • An early booking window. Tours and programs with limited places appear in the member newsletter first, usually about a week before they’re posted publicly.
  • Member prices on walking tours, set for each tour.
  • Invitations to member events from time to time, such as an opening reception for a Pop-Up art show or a walking tour with our Executive Director.
  • Starting in spring 2027, a member discount on SHS merchandise. The discount does not apply to artists’ work.

We’ll share details in the newsletter as each of these gets underway.
