Preserving the heritage of an area is the responsibility of its citizenry. As individuals and family members, we delight in discovering and claiming our personal histories. The same should be true of a community... particularly, when the community is as culturally and historically rich as Bristol, Virginia / Tennessee. We, as fellow Bristolians, regardless of our own lineages, are responsible for safeguarding and forwarding knowledge of our history to future generations.

The task of preserving and promoting our regional heritage is daunting. As individuals, it is not possible. The task is possible, however, if dedicated individuals band together and commit to preserving our past. The Bristol Historical Association is such a group of caring individuals and the organization invites YOU to become a member.

Few organizations offer members the opportunity to invest in the future like this one does. Officially chartered in April 1979, the organization is dedicated to the identification, preservation, interpretation, and presentation of local history for the benefit of the community at large.
