This is a must-see if you're in the area. Watching a room full of people working on looms is fun and their output is artful. Also attached is a crafts gallery. We bought an interesting mug with a rounded bottom that fits into a small pedestal.

There is art for every interest and budget, and it is a special opportunity to meet the artists, watch them work, and buy their art.

Before you enter there is an entrance fee. Once you enter there you will experience a informative, historical story of the Cherokee people. Beautiful display of artifacts along with an informational detail. There is a separate area that covers the trail of Tears which is informative and truly heart breaking. At the end of the tour there is a gift shop that you can visit. Very well worth the visit.
