For this week’s North Carolina Thursdays post, I decided to look around Swain County. There were a few places that looked interesting. I went with Museum of the Cherokee Indian also listed as Museum of the Cherokee in Cherokee – https://cherokeemuseum.com/. However, check about COVID-19 restrictions before scheduling a visit. I found the museum from last week’s post: Museum of the Southeast American Indian, Pembroke – North Carolina Thursdays March 11, 2021.
