2025 Friends of Georgia Archives and History Ornament
“Georgia on My Mind” – A Tribute to Music, Memory, and the Peach State
Celebrate Georgia’s rich cultural heritage with the 2025 FOGAH Ornament, featuring the timeless phrase, “Georgia on My Mind.” Originally written in 1930 by Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart Gorrell, the song was immortalized by Ray Charles in 1960 and officially adopted as Georgia’s state song by the General Assembly in 1979. This beautifully designed collectible ornament pays tribute to the Peach State and its beloved anthem — a melody that continues to touch hearts across generations. Whether displayed during the holiday season, cherished as a trip souvenir, or in a keepsake collection, this ornament is sure to bring warmth and meaning to you or anyone receiving it as a gift.
