Donors who make unrestricted annual gifts of $1,000 or more are members of the Frank L. Horton Society.  In 1965, Frank L. Horton, together with his mother, Theodosia L. Taliaferro, founded the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts.  They were passionate about acquiring, conserving, researching and exhibiting important examples of southern craftsmanship.
