Alabama Rural Heritage Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Alabama Rural Heritage Center is located in Thomaston, Alabama, and was built by the Auburn University Rural Studio. The center is run by the non-profit Alabama Rural Heritage Foundation. The building is located off of Alabama Highway 25, on the former Marengo County High School Campus. It is recognized for its billboard-like sign, and annual summer festival, Rural Fun Day.
The center houses a Folk Art Gallery, Gift Shop, Meeting Facilities, Offices, and a Commercial Production Kitchen. RHC produces local food products under the "Mama 'nems" trademark. The recipes for their products were developed with the Auburn University College of Human Sciences through a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant.
