Help Hannah’s House


By

Hannah Barker house, circa 1890, Carnegie Library

As you may be aware, Historic Boulder now has ownership of the Hannah Barker house (800 Arapahoe) and has been successful in obtaining funding from the State Historical Fund for the first phase of a four phase restoration project. There is much more money to be raised (including matching funds for the state grant) and, to that end, a number of us are looking high and low for additional funds.

Saturday morning (1/14/12) at 10 am sharp we’re planning to take a photo of Hannah’s house to use in grant applications and are hoping to have lots of folks (kids, dogs, young, old) join us for the photo op. The idea is to illustrate our community’s enthusiastic support for restoring the structure. Our special celebrity photographer is Council Member Tim Plass.

Won’t you consider joining us on Hannah’s porch? It should be quick, painless, fun and a way to earn your preservation chops!
