Built in 1924, the Scarritt-Bennett Center was originally built as a Missionary Training School. In 1981 Scarritt College became Scarritt Graduate School, providing educational degrees in Church Music and Christain Education. When the College closed it's doors in 1988, the woman's division of the United Methodist Church purchased the buildings and grounds and opened it up as a non-profit conference retreat and educational center.
