Log Number: MA-31-16-0480-16
The Kent Historical Society will purchase new storage cabinets and a dehumidifier to relocate and rehouse a collection of artwork from their historic house museum, Seven Hearths. The collections will be moved to a renovated storage center in an adjacent building, which will be environmentally upgraded to provide the safest storage space possible on the Society's property. The space that currently houses the collection will be used as an interpretive area highlighted as a fur trading shop. The primary outcome of the project will be the prevention of further deterioration and damage to the artwork and increased storage space.
