Major funding for the History Center is provided by local governments and membership contributions. The Center's work is constantly expanding to meet the needs of its members, educators and the community. The professional staff presents monthly lectures, provides educational programs in the schools and offers professional assistance to other history and heritage organizations throughout the area. The Convention Center Annex location is but an interim step toward an innovative, modern, permanent facility in which the Tampa Bay History Center can showcase its collection and continue to serve and educate residents, school children and visitors. The Tampa Bay History Center is located in the Tampa Convention Center Annex at 225 S. Franklin Street, Tampa, Florida.
Admission is free.
