HOW TO SUPPORT THE SOCIETY

HOW TO SUPPORT THE SOCIETY

The Society is launching a vigorous capital campaign to restore the Wells-Brown House, build a companion building for education, artifact storage, and Society use on the adjacent lot we own, develop programs, and continue working with the Master Gardeners on cultivating a public garden. Our headquarters building has turned 150 years of age and needs a new roof, shutter and porch repairs, stucco repair, and the restoration of its original terra cotta color. Join us in this important endeavor so that future Stone Mountain residents can enjoy learning about the village’s past at this historic site.


Volunteer

Help us provide house tours, lend a hand at events, or assist with managing the artifact collection.
