Celebrate Allen Heritage Guild’s 30th anniversary 3 to 5 p.m. Saturday, January 17, at an open house hosted at the Allen Heritage Village Train Depot, 100 E. Main. This event will feature memories, fellowship, and activities showcasing the Guild’s history. Beginning as a project of Leadership Allen’s Class 7 in 1995-1996, the Allen Heritage Guild was incorporated in January 1996. Preserving Allen’s history was the primary goal, and the members immediately began recording stories, gathering vintage photos and restoring historic buildings.
Filming descendants of Allen’s pioneers resulted in a project known as Recollections and Remembrance. Later, the Guild collaborated with ACTV and produced The Tales of Allen.
Restoration of St. Mary Church, which served as a school and church for Allen’s African American community, was completed in 2002. Architectural plans for the Allen Heritage Village were then consummated with Allen Parks and Recreation Department, and restoration of the structures ensued.
