SPECIAL EVENT: 40th Anniversary Open House


Transferring the Deed

Description:

A steady stream of visitors stopped by the Martin-Perry House to celebrate PLHS' 40th Anniversary. The PLHS Board and Volunteers were very pleased with the turnout and with the chance to introduce members of the community to the history of the formation of the Society, how the Martin-Perry House was saved, and some of our current activities. If you missed the chance to visit during the Open House, contact us at info@powellhistory.org to arrange a tour or to setup an appointment to visit and use our resources.
