The Benzie Area Historical Society and the Historical Society of Michigan are hosting a workshop about the Michigan Heritage Home Program at the Mills Community House, 891 Michigan Ave, Benzonia, and on Zoom during the Smithsonian Museum on Main Street.
Your house has a story to tell, and this workshop will help you discover what that story is. The workshop will help you research your home, what to look for, and where to conduct your research. The Michigan Heritage Home program recognizes homes built at least 100 years ago and in considerably original condition. This recognition honors your home’s history and heritage and helps share it with your community. The designation that your home receives will remind community members of your home’s contribution to the heritage that you all share.
Don’t forget to bring a lunch; refreshments will be provided!
