Live Art, Craft, and Cultural Demonstrations
A group of driven and passionate artists, singers, dancers, storytellers, researchers, Cherokee language learners, and knowledge seekers, Atsila Anotasgi (the Cherokee word for “Fire Builders”) focus on cultural preservation by reconnecting with their Eastern Cherokee heritage.
Formerly known as the Cherokee Friends, the group is comprised entirely of enrolled members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians who educate non-Indigenous and Indigenous communities about Eastern Cherokee belief systems, concepts, song and dance, and traditions through lectures, art demonstrations, dance performances, and storytelling sessions.
Demonstrations are included in general admission pricing and take place on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 10am-3pm.
