Northern Arizona Pioneers' Historical Society

The Northern Arizona Pioneers' Historical Society (NAPHS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion, collection, preservation and perpetuation of the history of northern Arizona. In pursuit of this mission NAPHS shall support organizations and programs that steward the history of northern Arizona through education and preservation.

Through Arizona Gives day, in addition to Riordan Mansion State Historic Park, we support the Arizona Historical Society's Pioneer Museum, the Fort Valley Experimental Forest Station and other programs supporting historic preservation and education in Northern Arizona.

We are excited to announce that the Pioneer Museum in Flagstaff is set to reopen by summer 2026! Thank you for all the support and efforts to get this museum back up and running. Although its doors have been closed since the COVID-19 pandemic, we look forward to reopening and serving the Flagstaff community again! Funding through Arizona Gives Day will help support education and preservation at the former hospital for the indigent. 

Our presence preserves our past.
