Readers Write: G.N. Historical Society needs place to store documents

The Island Now

The Great Neck Historical Society desperately needs the help of the community to find a place to keep its materials and local historic artifacts. 

Right now, our materials are being stored in the basements of various board members, but this is far from ideal. 

We are beginning to accumulate donations of historic articles – both files and objects – and need a secure location that is relatively temperature controlled and resistant to flooding.  We also need to store items such as T-shirts, which we sell at street fairs. 

The ideal location would be a small room (or even a large closet) in a storefront or office building. 

We would need access on an irregular basis to pick up and drop off materials. 

If you can offer such a location, or know of someone who might, please contact us at greatneckhistorical.org or call 516-288-6124.

 Thanks for your support.

Alice Kasten

President, Great Neck Historical Society
