The Thomas County Historical Society is proud to present a redesigned 2017 Spring Program series exploring the history, culture, ecology, and landscape of the Red Hills region. The series will be comprised of two lectures and a hands-on workshop all taking place in March. The Society is excited to introduce an extension of our popular Make History! Program with Make History: Hands-On Heritage! These programs will encourage adults to get hands-on with history and learn a traditional handicraft from a local expert. Our first class project will be learning how to make pine needle baskets made from the needles of the longleaf pine. The Hands-On Heritage Workshop requires registration, which will be available online at www.thomascountyhistory.org, fees are $15 for Members, $20 for Non-Members. All events will take place at the Museum of History, 725 N. Dawson Street, Thomasville, Georgia. For more information, please call 229-226-7664 or visit www.thomascountyhistory.org.
