What you’ll find at Historic Zoar Village is a way of life worth understanding and preserving. However, historic preservation of this scale and magnitude requires passionate people to see it through. We need dedicated volunteers, educators, preservationists, historians and raving fans like you! Historic Zoar Village has a mission and a responsibility to preserve, interpret, and celebrate the Separatists’ culture and heritage for all to enjoy. But we can’t do it alone – and we can’t do it without the help of like-minded individuals and businesses. Consider helping our cause today.
The Zoar Community Association works with groups like the Ohio History Connection, the Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition, and local civic organizations to preserve our past and secure our future. Our nearly 200 members come from miles around and from every walk of life. We take pleasure in making history come alive at what we believe is the most interesting – and most well-preserved – historic village in Ohio. We invite you to join us!
Any person, corporation, or other entity interested in the mission of the ZCA, and willing to help fulfill our purposes and objectives, may become a member.
