Dedicated to the study, preservation, and publication of material relating to the history of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers)
Founded in Philadelphia in 1873, Friends Historical Association has become an organization that is international in membership and interests, and that anyone, Friend or not, is invited to join.
EVENTS
This year, the FHA Spring Event was virtual and international!
On Sunday, May 2, we heard from friends in Fairhope, Alabama, about the Meeting there, and from Kay Chinook in Manitoba, Canada, author of Walking with Wolf, about the Meeting in Monteverde, Costa Rica.
Broadening ScholarsHip
To better support underrepresented scholars, conference presenters, and attenders, we are launching a new scholarship program. Up to three recipients will receive a stipend of $1,000 each to support conference attendance, as well as a year of membership in the Friends Historical Association.
Watch for information on how to apply later in 2021.
