Historical Society Opens New Home to Public
The Kent Historical Society had its grand opening Saturday at its newly renovated location.
The Kent Historical Society christened Saturday with an open house for the community.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony marked the opening of the Clapp-Woodward house, the society's new museum site at 237 E. Main St., to the public. Community members were able to walk through the halls and check out the newly renovated house and new museum displays packed with Kent history.
The house, built in 1883, was originally built by Marvin Kent for his nephew. It went though four owners before the historical society bought the home in December for $275,000.
