Description
Graded School , Madison GA
The First Graded School House in the Southeast - Madison Morgan Cultural Center in Madison, Georgia
The Madison-Morgan Cultural Center combines a rare treasure of the past with an active commitment to the future. The center is housed in a fine old Romanesque Revival red brick building, which was constructed in 1895 as one of the first graded public schools in the South. The original school bell still rings for the many visitors who enjoy the full schedule of exhibitions, performances and other programs throughout the year.
The dream to establish a multi-dimensional regional cultural facility was realized in July 1976 when the Madison-Morgan Cultural Center opened its doors to the public.
