The
Mackinaw Area Historical Society (MAHS) was founded in 1996 as a
non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Since that time it has organized
monthly speakers in presentations open to the public. 
In 2004 the Historical Society created a partnership with the Village of
Mackinaw City to create a Historic Village at 501 Wilderness Park Drive.
The Village of Mackinaw City owns the 43 acres of land and buildings.
The MAHS provides the energy for the restoration work and programming.
The MAHS also collects, catalogues, and owns the artifacts used in the
buildings.
