It was an informative walk through on the first floor with several rooms contains various stories about the struggles for southern families, musicians and women. There were several areas to sit and listen and watch the video. I was very pleased to see they had captions turned on so my spouse and I could enjoy the videos as well. Before we left we purchased a few items from the gift store. They had lots of T-shirt's 40% off as well as books for only $1. It's definitely worth the visit.

We had to draw the entire sunflower image ourselves and then the instructor was going so fast it was hard to keep up. Several of us had issues. For this to be my first time ever doing an activity like this it really ended pretty bad. It wasn't a great experience for me. I would like to suggest that maybe for classes you all offer an option for the image to be shaded on the boards for classes to help individuals like myself who has never done this before. I would rate my experience 1/10 for sure.
