Our History

The Collierville Twentieth Century Club, a 501(c)(4) organization, was formed January 25, 1950, as a group for Collierville women who wish to volunteer for the betterment of the Town of Collierville. We meet monthly to share fellowship and learn about Collierville through programs presented by the four departments (Arts, Education, Environment, and Community Life).

​

The club encourages the scholarship and civic participation of students in the Collierville public schools by providing a scholarship, a cash award, Good Citizenship awards, and prizes for art submitted to the poster contest.

​

The club raises funds and promotes the Town of Collierville through its annual arts and crafts fair, the Fair on the Square. The Fair is the club’s only fundraiser. In 2023 the club awarded $21,000 in grants, donations and scholarships.

​

The annual Collierville Fair on the Square is held the first weekend in May in the Collierville, Tennessee, Town Square. Admission and parking are free to visitors. First held in 1976, the fair is a family festival sponsored by the Collierville Twentieth Century Club. The charming town square, named Parade Magazine’s Best Main Street in America, is the backdrop for approximately 170 vendors who set up their tents in the park to sell hand-made items that are appropriate as gifts for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, graduation, or simply for the buyer. Hungry fair visitors can find foods ranging from corn dogs to nachos, pizza, barbeque, or crepes as well as other traditional fair foods. Many visitors sit down to eat and watch the continuous entertainment at the Collierville train depot provided by children from local schools, singers from local churches, area bands, solo singers, and dancers. The Fair welcomes children who can get their faces painted, ride a train, and play games.

​

If you are interested in truly affecting and positively impacting your Collierville community, we invite you to consider joining our organization. As with most civic organizations, we can always use the help. But we feel sure that you will be rewarded with the satisfaction of seeing real fruits from your labors and the knowledge that you have made a difference.​
