Curator-led Main House, Elisabeth Ireland Poe Gallery, and Kennel Cottage Tours

Presented by Pebble Hill Plantation at Pebble Hill Plantation

Our Curator will share her insights and expertise on the art, antiques, and architecture of the Main House. Participants will also explore the Elisabeth Ireland Poe Gallery (one of the largest private sporting art collections in the United States), where they will learn more about the works on display and the artists who created them. In the Kennel Cottage, which recently received an award from Thomasville Landmark’s for its preservation and historical significance, participants will hear stories of the men and women who lived and worked at Pebble Hill Plantation and gain insight into their daily lives.  Our Curator will discuss the Cottage’s historic displays and continued research efforts and plans for future expansion of the exhibits in the space.  Pebble Hill Plantation played an integral part in the history of Thomasville and Thomas County and these curator-led tours will invite discussion and reflection.   Space is limited.
