The Cheshire Historical Society’s recent Strategic Plan identified a comprehensive collection assessment as a priority for growth. This assessment is a critical first step that will facilitate implementing additional action steps in the Strategic Plan. The collection inventory and reconciliation with existing records will provide a foundation for future work, including reinterpretation of the museum and insuring that future acquisitions align with our mission statement and collecting goals.
