Such facets of Southern history as cotton farming, textiles, race relations and economy are addressed in permanent exhibits; changing exhibits introduce specific subjects of importance to the New South. Interactive displays let visitors shuck corn, pick cotton, and experiment with various other tasks. A media gallery presents oral histories and allows for research. Open Tuesday-Saturday 11am-5pm; closed holidays.
