With winter weather outside and children cooped up inside, what better way to get out of the house than to get into some history and art?
Seven museums, four arts councils, and three theaters offer exciting diversions from the winter doldrums. The museums of the Tennessee Overhill are your gateways to discover the heritage of Cherokee Indians, European fur traders, farmers, loggers, copper miners, textile workers, railroaders and more. Many of the museums present special exhibits, classes, and programs throughout the winter. Arts councils offer exhibits, performances, and programs that fire the imagination.
Call the Tennessee Overhill to request our newly revised and reprinted “Furs to Factories” brochure to learn about the Industrial Revolution and how it shaped the land and the people of the Tennessee Overhill.
