On Saturday, May 8, the Tennessee State Museum will literally come alive as interpreters dressed in period costumes portray individuals from our state’s past. Visitors will have the opportunity to interact with historical characters such as Rachel & Andrew Jackson, Casey Jones, Civil War soldiers and Suffragists. Families can participate in special games and hands-on activities for children. Tennessee History Comes Alive Family Day begins at 1:00pm and continues until 4:00pm. The public is invited to attend free of charge.

For the third consecutive year the Tennessee General Assembly Arts Caucus has partnered with the Tennessee State Museum in organizing a special spring exhibition. Opening March 17, the exhibit entitled, Tennessee History Comes Alive, serves as a showcase for the museum’s permanent collection and is free to the public.

This year each Arts Caucus member has chosen an artifact within the museum’s historical exhibits related to an individual or family. The exhibit will feature personal statements from caucus members sharing thoughts on how their artifact selections reflect enduring values of Tennesseans that have influenced the history of the Volunteer State.
