“Old Smyrna” Historical Exhibit Opens in Smyrna Library Display Gallery


The September and October display gallery at the Smyrna Library is named “old Smyrna”. It features a fantastic collection of "Old Smyrna" artifacts that date from the mid-1800s. The collection includes many old photos, very old pottery, books and political campaign items to name just a few of the unique items that will capture your attention.

Did you know Smyrna once had a very large legal liquor distillery? Yes, it did and a number of distillery-related artifacts will be shown for the first time at the library.

Additionally, the display gallery features a presentation on the Reed House and Raymond Reed. Don't miss this great collection of Smyrna memorabilia. Thanks to local historians Mike Terry and William Marchione for curating this exhibit.

Be sure to attend Mr. Terry's presentation on Raymond Reed and Reed House on Sunday, September 13, at 3 p.m.
