The Marbletown Schoolhouse, designed and
built in 1876 by noted architect Stephen N. Keener, was donated by the Marbletown
Neighborhood Association in 1993. An ongoing project of the AHS, efforts are being made to
restore the interior to that of an authentic one-room rural school. Tours, meetings, an
annual open house and Strawberry Social are current uses of the building.
