The HD SOUTH building, home of the Gilbert Historical Museum, has been a cornerstone of the Gilbert Community for decades. An important town landmark sitting at the south end of the Heritage District for more than 100 years, the HD SOUTH building is home to many prominent Gilbert events.
Our calendar is dominated by our signature Annual Signature Fundraiser, but we also host several other annual events that capture the imagination of the town.

Annual Art of Quilting show
This beloved exhibit displays both vintage and modern works of quilting art. The pieces shown are made to celebrate life events, commemorate special moments, or serve as beautiful home décor pieces. Many items in the exhibit are for sale, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting HD SOUTH. Typically held February through May, exhibit admission is included in the price of museum admission and on average, the show features more than 100 quilts!
HD SOUTH is located at 10 S. Gilbert Rd., Gilbert, AZ, and is open Tuesday-Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (museum admission applies).

Memorial Day
Each year HD South—Home of the Gilbert Historical Museum sponsors a morning of remembrance on Memorial Day. The event takes place on the last Monday in May and is free to attend. The ceremony is a collaboration between HD SOUTH, the Town of Gilbert, the Veteran’s Advisory Board, and American Legion Post 39. The event includes a flag and wreath ceremony, the battlefield cross, the POW/MIA table, presentation of Gold Star coins, poignant guest speakers, and remarks from local Gilbert dignitaries.
