Chalmers Institute
Holly Springs, MS
On December 10, 2013, Preserve Marshall County Holly Springs announced that Chalmers Institute is the recipient of $80,000 in grant funding from the 2013 Community Heritage Preservation grant program.
Chalmers, built in 1837, has been largely abandoned since the 1980s. It is best recognized as having been the first chartered university in Mississippi. It is currently being rehabilitated into a functional space for the community.
The grant will be used for the replacement of the roof, and the rehabilitation of the interior of Chalmers Institute.
