Annual Giving Fund Overview
Every year, the Kent Historical Society works to collect, preserve, interpret, and share the stories that make our community unique — from the earliest settlers who built this town to the generations who shaped its schools, farms, churches, and neighborhoods. These are our stories and they deserve to be remembered, protected, and passed on.
Impact Summary
Thanks to your past support, we were able to:
- Make significant improvements to Seven Hearths Museum, including a new front porch, a wooden railing to the second floor, newly installed paintings from our collections, and upgrades to the back entrance area with a widened doorway and a stone walkway.
- Welcome more than 100 local students for tours and hands-on history programs.
- Provide free community events, including Memorial Day, the Annual Christmas Party, and programs at the Senior Center.
- Expand volunteer opportunities through our Museum Docent program and Collections & Archives training.
