 Gather Place Museum is the very first African American Woman owned and operated,
American History Museum to open in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Its stated mission includes providing meaningful community-based events and activities by a more inclusive revelation about Yardley Borough, Bucks County and the state of Pennsylvania’s Quaker founders, 

many forgotten people and neighborhoods, including African American 

 and Women’s history and heritage ~ "We bring history to life!"

 We opened our doors on September 10, 2022.  One of our permanent exhibits now showing displays the story about Yardley Borough’s Quaker founders, its diverse neighborhoods and families, its rich history that includes African Americans going back to Bucks County's origins. 

We are a living history museum featuring exhibits, documents, photos, movie documentaries, and first-person history lessons, and historical reenactments! Bucks County's history and beyond, delivered in the tradition of the West African Griot (historian, storyteller, praise singer, poet, genealogist, and/or musician.) We are open Saturdays and Sundays 12noon to 3pm and (M-F by appointment only). Gather Place is under management of Shirley Lee Corsey, Property Conservator and  Gather Place Executive Director, this historic landmark is being restored through donations and grants.
