A Museum Without Walls

We bring local history into our community through exhibit cases, interpretive panels, historic markers, and not least this website.

Our Mission and Vision

The Brockport Community Museum is a "Museum Without Walls" — instead of a single building, we bring local history directly into the community we serve. Chartered by the New York State Education Department in 2002, we believe the story of our community belongs to everyone in it.

Our vision is to preserve and protect our local history, making it entirely free and accessible to the public. Through community awareness, active resident participation, and partnership with fellow repositories, we ensure our shared heritage is never lost.

Brockport, New York

Brockport is “The Victorian Village on the Erie Canal,” a tribute to its many extant late nineteenth-century buildings. Incorporated in 1829, the Western New York village and its environs have a long, rich, and varied history that the Brockport Community Museum aims to preserve, document, and memorialize.
