🍓🍽🫐 A Look Back at Crate to Plate 2026! 🍓🍽🫐

What a wonderful evening! We're excited to share a few of our favorite moments from this year's Crate to Plate: Red, White, and Blueberry.

Despite a little rain, the evening was a success, raising more than $23,000 in support of the Thomasville History Center and our mission to preserve and share our community's history.

A heartfelt thank you to our generous sponsors, guests, donors, volunteers, and staff who made it all possible. From delicious food and live music to great company and community support, it was an evening to remember!

Enjoy this look back at a special night, and thank you for continuing to support the Thomasville History Center.

💪 A BIG thank you to the students from Brookwood School who rolled up their sleeves and put some muscle into helping us at the Thomasville History Center today!

These hardworking volunteers made quick work of removing the old picket fence around the historic Joiner-Callaway House, clearing the way for a new fence and a special project we’re excited to share more about soon!

We’re grateful for their hard work, enthusiasm, and willingness to give back to their community. We couldn't have done it without you!

👏 Thank you, Brookwood School, Thomasville, Ga.!
