Local history woven together.

Complex Cloth

Complex Cloth is Dr.Jane McPherson's, associate professor at the School of Social Work, initiative to recognize the history of the School of Social Work building, which once served at the Athens Factory.
Athens Factory was a cotton mill which was made up of enslaved people, children, and woman.
We hope that our project can be used as a space for locals, instructors, and students to use to educate themselves on Athen's extensive history.
