We've come a long way since the Latah County Pioneer Association began collecting history in the 1880s, but our fundamental purpose is unchanged. The Latah County Historical Society exists to serve our mission: For ours and future generations, we collect, preserve, share, and celebrate the history of Latah County in order to promote a deeper understanding of the many experiences that make up our shared past. We accomplish these ends with exhibits, educational programs, research facilities, public events, community collaborations, and publications.
