Our Heritage Hall at 318 First Avenue houses our displays and collections of historical items of the Slater area. Our mission is to be a resource for our community by making history a personal experience. We act as a repository, collecting and conserving artifacts and information significant to the heritage of the community. We make these collected memories available to educate current and future generations. We have special exhibits relating to history to current events.
