Kids Take Over the Museum

The 4th Annual Kids Take Over the Museum provides kids of all ages with hands-on activities rooted in rich Appalachian history.

There is no shortage of activities for your young crafter or artist. From 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, they get their hands and minds busy on basket weaving, blacksmithing, and pottery making.  Over 25 demonstrations, on-site vendors and special events are lined up for this huge day at the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center.

Visitors play loads of games that were popular choices for kids on the mountain homestead. Plus, representatives from the Museum of the Cherokee will be on hand to share their cultural heritage.
