An exhibit which pays homage to Tennesseans whose lives and legacies have contributed to the rich and storied history of the Volunteer State opens at the State Museum on October 8. Tennesseans: A People’s Legacy, tells Tennessee’s story through a diverse array of personalities, whose sagas stretch across hundreds of square miles of land and embrace centuries of history. It is a story of both change and enduring traditions, of conflict and reconciliation, and of struggle and endurance. It includes a diverse patchwork of people, some virtually forgotten by history, and others who are enshrined in the national and international consciousness.

Through objects, art, and photographs, the exhibition presents the stories from a sampling of individuals, including the frontier founder a of state, the mother who endured the death of a child, the potter who gave his life for his country, and the artist whose creativity has added a new dimension to contemporary Tennessee.
