We are a not-for-profit historical society, established in 1998, dedicated to preserving and sharing the history of the Chermside & Districts area. We do this by researching and recording the stories of the people who have lived here, the events that took place, where and when they occurred, how they unfolded, and most importantly, why.
If you would like to join our society, email chermsidedhs@gmail.com for more information or sign up via the form below. Our members enjoy meetings on the first Sunday of every month, 2-4pm (except January). Our meetings include guest speakers, afternoon tea, and a chance to meet others who live in the local area and learn more about our local history. There is also a bi-monthly member newsletter with interesting historical facts about our area, quizzes, and updates from the CDHS management committee. Single $20/year, family $30/year. Click here to fill out our membership form.
Our volunteers are available at the Chermside Historical Precinct (61 Kittyhawk Drive, Chermside) on the first Saturday of each month (except January), from 2–4pm, to answer questions and chat about our local history. Please book in for a dedicated 20-minute chat with one of our volunteers by clicking here or send an email to chermsidedhs@gmail.com.
