Oakland History Center's Spring Auction
2026-05-08 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Detroit) | Crofoot Cafe, 1 South Saginaw, Pontiac, 48328, United States
Art, art, and more art! Mix and mingle with the Oakland History Center in historic downtown Pontiac, as we celebrate all things creative. It’s a great time and all of the proceeds help support Michigan’s oldest historical society (152 years and counting, but folks say we don’t look a day over 125).

Ticket prices on the Eventbrite website reflect their processing fees so they look a little odd.

OCHS Annual Meeting
2026-05-16 11:00 - 14:30 | MI
We want to invite you to our 2026 Annual Meeting. Held at the newly rejuvenated Webster Community Center in Pontiac, we’ll have a ton of exciting things to talk about, maybe some snacks, and definitely some great company.
These affairs can get a little stuffy, but we think you’ll be interested to learn about all of the projects we’ve got going on, and all of the neat initiatives still to come this year…and beyond.

Oakland County America 250 Celebration
2026-07-25 - 2026-07-26 | Oakland History Center at Pine Grove, 405 Cesar Chavez Avenue, Pontiac, MI, 48341, United States
As America celebrates 250 years as a nation, please join us for a county and city celebration at our campus on July 25th and 26th.

Planning (and work!) is underway with all this going on:

The Oakland County Board of Commissioners has approved funding the paving of our driveway and electrical improvements on our campus grounds.
Several planning meetings have been held involving many of our local historical organizations and museums to assemble an event covering every area of our county.
Key leaders in our county government have committed their involvement, including the Board of Commissioners, Oakland County Parks, Oakland County Circuit Court, and others.
The City of Pontiac, in addition to celebrating the 100th anniversary of Pontiac Motors this year, will be holding activities at our campus during the event.
Several SAR and DAR chapters will also be joining us, providing reenactors and some ceremonial activities.

There’s a lot more to come. For now, consider this your “Save the Date” for a historic, really fun event!
