Effective June 2024, Friends of Broomfield History will be rebranded as the Broomfield Historical Society.
We are rebranding in an effort to better achieve our mission, remove name confusion with local organizations and make ourselves more easily identifiable in the local community and beyond. The change is also a return to our roots as we look forward to celebrating our 50th anniversary in 2026! We were originally founded as the Broomfield Historical Society in 1976 during Broomfield’s bicentennial celebration. We will keep the same look and feel of our current logo so we can be easily recognized.
Become our friend!
The Broomfield Historical Society invites you to help by donating to our organization. Connect with this landmark railroad depot that helped shape Broomfield’s history.
The Broomfield Historical Society is a nonprofit organization that supports the Broomfield Depot Museum through advocacy, fund-raising and by increasing public awareness.
By donating and becoming part of the Broomfield Historical Society, you will help support:
- Keeping the Depot Museum open to the public and preserving its collections
- Museum tours for schools, scouts and other interested groups
- Special programs like “Escape the Museum” and “CrashFest”
- Telling the story of Broomfield
- Members-only events
- Speakers that illuminate Broomfield and regional history
To show our appreciation to donors, we’ll send a variety pack of our exclusive Broomfield-themed postcards, designed by Andrea Margheim-Minnich and Rachel Courtney, to donors who give $100 or more. And every donor will receive stickers from the same design collection. We are grateful for your support.
