Tennessee State Museum

The Tennessee State Museum is home to 13,000 years of Tennessee art and history. Designed to bring history to life, it features a “Tennessee Time Tunnel,” surveying the state’s rich history, six permanent exhibitions showcasing the Museum’s robust collection, a hands-on Children’s Gallery, a state-of-the art digital learning center, Museum store, and a two-story Grand Hall. Changing galleries host exhibitions on Tennessee art, craft, music and history, and in 2020, will offer a special commemoration on the centennial of the passing of the 19th amendment, giving American women to right to vote. Visitors will learn the fascinating story of the state’s role in making it happen. Located at the corner of Rosa Parks Blvd. and Jefferson Street at Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park, there is ample free parking and no admission charge. For more information: tnmuseum.org.
