“We are calling this building the Chester Museum at the Mill and hope to create a place where we can store and exhibit the materials within our collection, hold lectures, and tell the rich history of Chester.”
“It is a fascinating story of a changing small New England town, and this museum will provide us with the opportunity to share it with residents and visitors.”
“We have completed some major work already. We have installed a new elevator, new restrooms, new kitchen, and replaced the heating system. We have a new entrance and a second exit stairway from the second floor, but much remains to be done.”
“This is a major undertaking. The society is a group of volunteers, all very committed, but still volunteers with limited time and limited experience in fundraising. We realize we need some expertise to guide us.”
