All items in our exhibits have been donated by or are on loan from individuals or families from, or having connections to, Pickens County. We are always interested in obtaining additional items to enhance our collections.
We are particularly interested in items and documents pertaining to Camp Aliceville or other POW camps, WWII military, and items relevant to the history of Aliceville and Pickens County including those relative to the African American experience. Contact the museum for information about how to donate or loan items. |
