Snow Hill Normal and Industrial Institute
Snow Hill Normal and Industrial Institute, Educational historic district in Snow Hill, Alabama, US
The Snow Hill Normal and Industrial Institute comprises eight surviving buildings out of the original twenty-seven structures on its educational campus.
Founded in 1893 by William James Edwards, the institute started as a one-room log cabin and expanded to accommodate over 400 students by the early 1900s.
The institute provided education and industrial training to African American students during a period when educational opportunities for this community were limited.
Located in Wilcox County at coordinates 32.019722, -87.0325, the site maintains architectural elements from both Queen Anne and Craftsman building styles.
The founder's residence, five teacher cottages, and the library remain as testimonials to the educational legacy that operated until 1973.
