To continue the legacy of Fayette county author Dr. Ferrol Sams Jr., Friends of Historic Woolsey celebrates authors, literature, art, photography, and aspiring writers. In addition to local and regional authors and artists, we also are interested in experts in historic preservation, small-town life, the environment, southern heritage, and works of cultural significance. Join us in our own culture corner to experience all things Woolsey and Fayette County related and to learn about our cultural heritage. Please check our events for upcoming book signings, classes, events, and discussions.
