Judy Mason, a retired librarian and volunteer at Two Rivers Heritage Museum, is organizing all of the books into a database for easy access.
Jim Cobb, president of the Camas-Washougal Historical Society, wrote a successful grant application for $5,220. The money will be used to refurbish several antique instruments in the Two Rivers Heritage Museum.
The Two Rivers Heritage Museum includes a plethora of historical artifacts, including this turn-of-the-century music book, which sits on top a 1886 Arion Square grand piano.
Cobb is curious if anyone in the community knows what this item was used for in the past. "I think it had something to do with mail collection from the trains as these passed through town, but we are not sure." Those with ideas are encouraged to call 835-8742.
This 1886 Arion Square grand piano is one of the instruments in the Two Rivers Heritage Museum that will be refurbished.
Thanks to a new grant, the Camas-Washougal Historical Society will be able to refurbish some musical artifacts and make them accessible to the public.
“We really want to make this a living museum,” said Jim Cobb, president. “Right now, these pieces are objects, but we want to bring these artifacts to life.”
