Experience a living classroom of Cherokee history and culture at the Cherokee Heritage Center's annual Indian Territory Days. Created for students from kindergarten up to 12th grade, Indian Territory Days will focus on the late 1800s prior to Oklahoma statehood. This annual Tahlequah event includes educational and entertaining demonstrations and activities.

While geared toward school-age children, Indian Territory Days is also open to the public. Visitors to this annual event will enjoy trained historical interpreters at multiple stations leading activities like storytelling, blowgun shooting, Cherokee marbles, a Cherokee language lesson and much more. Demonstrations in pottery, basket weaving and finger weaving will show children the unique Cherokee lifestyle of this time period. All activities will be held in the Adams Corner Rural Village, a recreated, 19th century rural Cherokee village. 

Be sure to head inside the Cherokee Heritage Center to experience the museum's exhibits. Identical activities are conducted on both days. Call ahead for pricing and recommended reservations.
