Overview

Mission

The windsor square-hancock park historical society mission and purpose is to preserve and collect the rich and illustrious history of the greater rancho la brea, encompassing the recognition of its architectural landmarks, historical sites and finely appointed homes, while generating a supporting community spirit.

What it reported doing in 2025

In march of 2025, the society hosted the annual membership tea at the langham huntington hotel, nestled in pasadena's oak knoll district. Over 125 members joined the tea, one of the society's most popular events. The society also sponsored a holiday party, held at the beautiful home of executive board member joseph guidera with over 100 members in attendance.
