The Salem Group company history timeline

1810

By 1810, many of the members of the Social Library also belonged to the Philosophical Library, and the two bodies were merged to create the Salem Athenæum.

1831

Perhaps the greatest catalyst to outside secular influences occurred in 1831 when the state of North Carolina rescinded an earlier order exempting Moravians from military service.

1850

Saxhorns are believed to be the first true valved instruments present in Salem, arriving probably around 1850.

1851

By 1851, references to the Salem Brass Band began appearing in documents and records.

1872

By 1872, however, Leinbach began instructing a group of young men in instrumental music.

1905

In 1905, the Athenæum sold the building at 132 Essex Street to the Essex Institute (now the Peabody Essex Museum), and with the proceeds constructed the building it currently occupies, at 337 Essex Street.

1907

Dedicated in 1907, this handsome red brick structure was modeled on Homewood, an estate in Maryland built by Charles Carroll (a signer of the Declaration of Independence) for his son.

1958

McCorkle, Donald M. “Moravian Music in Salem: A German-American Heritage.” PhD diss., Indiana University, 1958.

2011

Numerous capable individuals applied and interviewed before the current director, Doctor Eileen M. Young, was named director in 2011.

2017

Since 2017, The Salem Athenaeum has been the primary presenter of Salem Literary Festival at the invitation of best-selling author and Salem resident, Brunonia Barry.
