The Mission of the Kent Historical Society is to be the primary Kent history resource and reference center, leading the community in the collection, preservation, and interpretation of Kent's heritage.
In spite of the wet, chilly weather on Thursday (6-13-19), members of Main Street Kent enjoyed food and conversation at their annual awards party, held in KHS Museum (Clapp-Woodard house). Congratulations to all of the award winners! See a complete list of award winners on Facebook [Main Street Kent], and more about this local organization of community advocates at their website http://www.mainstreetkent.org/.
The Kent Historical Society Museum’s newest two-part exhibit - “Views of Kent by Local Artists” and “Treasures from the Attic” - gives art and artifacts typically tucked away in storage a chance to shine under the spot-lights. The public is invited to explore the exhibit during KHS’ spring open house on May 11 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
