Mary Ricks Thorton Cultural Center
Corner of East Washington and North Huntington. Formerly a Presbyterian Church built in the country gothic style, this 1899 building now serves as a cultural center. The sanctuary features outstanding stained glass windows.
The Kosciusko-Attala Historical Society purchased the building in 1987 and restored it. The Delta Gamma Founder's Room is also a feature of the Center. A portrait of the three founders, Eva Webb Dodd, Anna Boyd Ellington and Mary Comfort Leonard, hangs in this memorial room which has been recently decorated and furnished beautifully with new draperies, red oak flooring, oriental rugs and antiques. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
A Mississippi Historic Landmark.
