Who We Are

The Olympia-Granby Historical Foundation was established in 2014 to create the Olympia Mill Village Museum.  The foundation’s mission is to promote activities within the Olympia and Granby Mill Villages that will enhance the lives of the people living in those communities. 

The museum we are creating will help preserve the rich history of the Olympia and Granby Mill Villages which were established in the late 1880's within the shadow of our state's capital.  The Olympia Mill Village Museum is located in the actual mill house that was the original one-room Olympia School, which opened in 1901.  The museum will contain artifacts and collections of memorabilia of the mill village, and the people who lived and worked there. 

This museum will enhance the lives of those living in the villages by helping residents appreciate the long history of the place where they reside.  This museum will also serve the thousands of others who maintain deep connections to their mill village roots.
