Join us as we celebrate the re-opening of our Visitor Center with all new exhibits. The new exhibits will take a deeper look at Zebulon Vance’s childhood and career, include information and perspectives from the last 50 years of research, and add hands-on, kid-friendly interactive elements. As with any good mountain party, there will be live music (by The Martins) and BBQ plates (for sale from Appalachian Smoke).
