Clementine Hunter’s Murals Return Home to the African House

After almost two years away from their home at the African House of Melrose Plantation in Melrose, Louisiana, the restored plantation murals painted by folk artist Clementine Hunter were reinstalled in April 2016. Thanks to the generous contribution of APHN member Theodosia Nolan and the dedicated expertise of Whitten & Proctor Fine Art Conservation, this artwork can continue to serve the community as its creator intended.
