Kenmore Heritage Society completes archive-digitization project

The nonprofit Kenmore Heritage Society has completed its archive-digitization project. Since its inception in 1998, the Society has been collecting artifacts and photos of historical significance, which will soon be available to the public online. In 2010, the Society applied and received grant funds from 4Culture provided by tax dollars generated through the 1973 transportation levy requiring 1 percent for arts and culture and King County’s Lodging Tax.
