The Thomasville History Center and Lapham-Patterson House opening their doors for a special free afternoon of history and exploration on Sunday, May 2 in partnership with the Georgia Historical Society’s annual Super Museum Sunday. On that day, more than 50 sites across the state will offer free admission to guests at historic sites, museums, and cultural institutions. A list of participating sites can be found at georgiahistoryfestival.org and more sites are being added daily. We encourage you to review our site’s COVID-19 protocols before your arrival by visiting thomasvillehistory.org/visit to ensure the best experience.

The Thomasville History Center’s historic buildings and grounds will open for self-guided tours between Noon and 4pm. Guests may also view a special temporary exhibit celebrating Thomasville’s centennial Rose Show & Festival including Rose Queen gowns, and other Rose Festival items from our collections. The remainder of the History Center’s exhibits remains closed to the public as we put on the finishing touches on our updated exhibit spaces in other areas of the Flowers-Roberts House. 

The Lapham-Patterson House will be open for self-guided tours between Noon and 4 pm. Scavenger hunts featuring architectural items and décor will be available for all ages. 

In celebration of the end of our exhibit renovation project, we invite you to come see what’s “bloomed” from our research and re-design.

We’ve designed an exclusive behind-the-scenes experience to welcome you into our refreshed exhibit spaces and give you an opportunity to see them up close and personal. The staff will be available to answer any questions you have and discuss the process we undertook to bring new stories to life. This event will be by ticket only and attendees will leave with a parting gift.

With everyone’s health in mind, we will limit the number of tickets available each evening. Light refreshments and a special cocktail will be available outside on the Lower Patio, and you’re invited to enjoy the beautiful spring evening.

Funds raised from this special preview event will benefit the ongoing programs and operations of the Thomasville History Center as well as future exhibit updates across our property. 

More information coming soon!
