Our Membership Goal includes all who have a desire to see the history of our Greenville area textile history preserved.
The purpose of the Greenville Textile Heritage Society, GTHS, includes promoting cooperation and exchange of information among individuals and institutions intersted in the preservation of the history of textiles in Greenville; collecting artifacts, documents, photographs, memorabilia, machinery, equipment, and other materials related to the history of Greenville area textiles; preserving and teaching the history of Greenville area textiles to include history of mill founders, mill villages, education emphasis, and the nature of life on the old mill villages.
The goals of GTHS require the involvement of people who have a history of being involved in textiles either personally or by association with family members and friends. To accomplish the preservation of textile history for the generations to follow ours requires both our time and our money. Therefore, GTHS is encouraging all interested parties to partner together to form a strong organization that will accomplish the task of preserving the significant activites that form our history.
