About fl Questers
Florida Questers is a Chartered State Organization of THE QUESTERS, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving and restoring history for the benefit of future generations. Our members share a passion for antiques, historic sites, and lifelong learning.
Across Florida, local Quester chapters meet regularly for programs, guest speakers, museum visits, and workshops that inspire curiosity and build lasting friendships. At the state level, members gather annually for educational opportunities and to connect with Questers from across the region.
Many Florida chapters also support local Preservation & Restoration (P&R) projects, applying for grants or raising funds to protect historic landmarks and artifacts in their communities. These efforts directly contribute to the mission of Questers International to preserve history through education and action.
Guests are always welcome to attend meetings and events.
Join us as we explore the past, preserve the present, and inspire the future.
