The staff was excellent. The museum was very informative. We especially appreciated that the museum was in transition. We applaud your efforts to more accurately represent your history as well as your present achievements. We highly recommend visiting. Thank you.

Interesting museum that seemed to be in constant updating/renovations. Bit confusing with very difficult to read small print, poorly located placards. Most of the exhibits appeared to be from current artists so not historic. We expected more and hopefully they will continue to enhance. There was a docent at the end with a small group, but we did not know if we could have joined or if it was offered. Good history lessons of the plight and struggles of the Cherokee people.

The Museum is excellent. It is very informative, if you take the tour, the guide is amazing. Going on your own is faster but your questions won't be answered. I would definitely go again!

What should have been educational quickly turned into a white-hating, almost racist portrayal.Disheartening, do better. Every nation and people on earth have experienced diversity, lose the DEI and realize that.
