This Friday and Saturday (April 29 & 30), a historic Kentucky home will conduct an open house.

Built in the early 19th Century, the Gardner House is located on the WKU Biological Preserve in Hart County, and has become a restoration project for WKU's Department of Folk Studies and Anthropology.

WKU Folk Studies graduate student Rachel Hopkin prepared this story.

More information about the open house is available at (941) 626-0116, and online here.
