112 EAST MICHIGAN STREET · THE SUMMER KITCHEN OF THE SERVICE HOUSE
What it is: the town's memory institution in its archival capacity (its publishing capacity stands in Part One). Historic New Carlisle keeps a local history museum — photographs, artifacts and memorabilia of the town's past, by its own description — offices itself in the summer kitchen of the Jeremiah Service House it rescued in 1998, and states in its directory description that it accepts donations to its archives of the town's material. For this build, that makes the society's rooms the likeliest seat of the town's photographic record and its ephemera — the class of evidence the printed shelf cannot supply — and the society's own exhibits (the famous-visitors display among them) are curated statements at the strength any institution's self-presentation carries. Its holdings are not catalogued in any source reached; like the library's, they are enumerated by a visit, and the pull list says so.
Principal sources: historicnewcarlisle.org and the organization's directory descriptions, read first-hand; the Service House nomination record for the 1998 purchase and the office's seat.
