Hands-on participation in Cherokee games; demonstrations in pottery making, basket weaving and finger weaving; and other activity stations that introduce children to period toys, the Cherokee language and Cherokee lore will all be featured. Museum galleries are open for self-directed tours. Students are encouraged to visit all stations and earn a prize for their participation. Suitable for Grades K – 8. Admission is free for students and chaperones (one per seven students). Ask about a bus travel reimbursement. Space provided to eat lunch. The event will be held rain or shine.
