History edit

The Cherokee "living museum" founded by the Eastern Band of Cherokee in 1952, and is operated by the Cherokee Historical Association.[1] The Eastern Band of Cherokee also established other local attractions, including in 1948 with the Museum of the Cherokee Indian; and in 1950 with the Unto These Hills outdoor theater series.[1] Guides take visitors through the village explaining the history and culture of the Cherokee and also demonstrate the making of such items as arrowheads, baskets, and blowguns.
