REGIONAL AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSEUM

Historic Preservation in Cornelia, Georgia

The Regional African American Museum of Northeast Georgia, Inc. was founded in 2010. We intend to preserve the cultural heritage of communities who attended the Cornelia Regional Colored School; an “equalization” school built and maintained by Boards of Education in Banks, Habersham, Rabun, and White Counties 1955-1966, to avoid integration of said county's high schools; prior to Brown v Board of Education.
