Douglass Elementary School Quilt

Hadley Collection

This handmade quilt was created to honor the students of Douglass Elementary School. After integration in 1970, Douglass served first as a middle school and later as an elementary school for the city of Thomasville until its closure in the early 2000s. The quilt features student-designed quilt squares from the final fifth-grade class, representing their last year at Douglass. Courtesy of the Jack Hadley Black History Museum
