Kelly Larson of the Michigan Main Street Center and the Michigan Historic Preservation Office will give a presentation. The community, especially downtown building owners, is invited.

Blissfield has two buildings on the national register: the David Carpenter House, commonly known as the Hathaway House, and First Presbyterian Church. Many sites are on the state’s list.
