 Unto
These Hills
is an outdoor drama presenting
the history of the Cherokee
Indians in a beautiful
Mountainside Theatre, mid-June
thru late August each year.
2011 Season Dates: June 3 -
August 13, Monday - Saturday at
7:30 PM. In 2006, “Unto These
Hills” began a new script, new
director, new score, new
choreography, new set design,
new costuming and new cast
members all aimed at conveying
a more culturally authentic,
historically accurate and
Cherokee-centered experience.
The new play traces the Cherokee
people through the aeons,
through the zenith of their
power, through the heartbreak of
the Trail of Tears, finally
ending, appropriately, in the
present day, where the Cherokee
people, much like their newly
re-scripted drama, continue to
rewrite their place in the
world.

 The
Museum of the Cherokee Indian
So
begins your trip through the Museum of
the Cherokee Indian. Totally renovated
in 1998, the new museum tells the story
of the Cherokee people using high-tech
wizardry along with an extensive
artifact collection. Follow the "Trail
of Tears" and learn about the
language, customs and crafts of a
remarkable civilization and people. |
 Oconaluftee
Indian Village
The wood smoke drifting on the breeze
isn't like any you've smelled before.
It's not the pure tang of hardwood
burned for heat. Nor is it the aroma of
a cooking fire, fragrant with baking
bread or bubbling broth or roasting
meat. There's something earthy about
this fire, because it's smoldering pitch
pine, firing local Cherokee clay into
gleaming blackware pottery. Then again,
all the sights, sounds, and scents
surrounding you today are novel. In the
Oconaluftee Indian Village, it's 1750. |
 Cherokee
Heritage Trail -
From the serene
peaks of the Balsams to the muddy banks
of the Little Tennessee River, Cherokee
Heritage Trails wind through the
southern Appalachians, telling the story
of the Cherokee people, Ani-Kituhwa-gi,
who once commanded all of the Southern
Appalachians. Although most of the
Cherokee were forcibly removed to
Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears in 1838,
a small group remained in their
homeland, becoming the Eastern Band of
Cherokee Indians. Today they own about
57,000 acres - the Qualla Boundary, a
remnant of their ancestral lands. |
 Great
Smoky Mountains National Park - 2009
was the 75th anniversary of the Great
Smoky Mountains National Park. Ridge
upon ridge of endless forest straddles the
border between
North Carolina and Tennessee in Great
Smoky Mountains National Park.
World renowned for the diversity of its
plant and animal life, the beauty of its
ancient mountains, and the quality of
its remnants of Southern Appalachian
mountain culture, this is America's most
visited national park.
Mountain Farm Museum at the
Oconaluftee Visitor Center
is a unique collection of farm buildings
assembled from locations throughout
 the
Park. Explore a log farmhouse, barn,
apple house, springhouse, and a working
blacksmith shop to get a sense of how
families may have lived 100 years ago.
Most of the structures were built in the
late 19th century and move to the
current location in the 1950s. The Davis
House offers a rare chance to view a log
house built from chestnut wood before
the chestnut blight decimated the
American Chestnut in our forests during
the 1930s and early 1940. The
Oconaluftee River Trail begins at the
farm and follows the River for 1.5 miles
to Cherokee. |

by mountains and one of the most popular

collection of log homes and
outbuildings. A wide array of historic
buildings dating back to the late 19th
and early 20th centuries is scattered
through-out the cove. A visitor center
(open daily), restrooms, and the Cable
Mill historic area are located half-way

Qualla
Arts and Crafts Mutual
- Founded in 1946 with the purpose
of preserving and advancing Cherokee
arts and crafts, the Qualla Arts &
Crafts Mutual, Inc., is today the oldest
and leading Native American Arts
cooperative in the United States. If
practice makes perfect, the beauty of
Cherokee arts and crafts today should
come as no surprise. The Cherokees
practice of pottery, basket weaving, and
tool-making go back ten thousand years.
Of course, we all descend from ancestors
who made the needed items of daily life
and celebration. Otherwise, we wouldn't
be here. Unlike most of us today, the
Cherokees are still in touch with their
ancient art and craft traditions. Now
you can be in touch as well, by bringing
home the available, affordable work of
contemporary Cherokee masters. |
 Featured
Artists of the Month
Each month, we will be highlighting two
featured artists from more than 300
talented potters, sculptors, weavers and
other artisans at the Qualla Arts and
Crafts Mutual Co-op. Learn what inspires
this month's featured artists to create
unique works of Native American art. |
