Our Purpose
The admission fee is $10 (children under 10 are free) which includes parking. Proceeds for the event will benefit the Glades Historical Society, a non-profit organization based in Belle Glade, Florida which is dedicated to preserving and promoting the history and culture of the Glades area.
Founded in 1979 by a group of residents who recognized the importance of preserving the area's unique history and heritage; the Glades Historical Society is responsible for the day-to-day operations and preservation of the Lawrence E. Will Museum.
Our goal is to bring people to the Glades and promote tourism in our area while supporting a great cause.
