Students can learn more about the rich history and thriving culture of the Cherokee Nation through free education tours this spring. They can be scheduled February- May, with reservations offered on a firstcome, first-served basis.

Three tour options are offered, each hosted by knowledgeable interpretive guides. Tour options include the following: Cherokee History Tour — Visit Tahlequah’s historic Capitol Square and the iconic Cherokee National History Museum. Take advantage of the Cherokee Cultural Pathway, where beautiful immersive art installations sit along a path that connects you to additional sites such as the Cherokee National Supreme Court Museum and the Cherokee National Prison Museum, with the John Ross Museum just a short drive away.

Sequoyah’s Cabin Tour — Sequoyah, a significant figure in American history, was monumental in the creation of the Cherokee language. Sequoyah’s Cabin Museum, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was built in 1829 and has been maintained and furnished to appear as it did centuries ago. Experience what it was like when Sequoyah lived at this National Literary Landmark. Stroll the surrounding 10-acre park and take in the natural beauty of Sallisaw.
