Postcards from Appalachia



One of the highlights of each Kanto group visit to LMU is the tour of the Museum of Appalachia in Clinton, Tennessee. The Museum of Appalachia is a journey through the past, where you can see authentic settlements established by Appalachian mountain people long ago.


Last Thursday, the Kanto students visited the museum, had fun playing "spoons" and singing along to traditional mountain folk music, and learned about the homes, livelihood, food, music, and farm life that belong to a bygone, simpler era of Tennessee history.


Here is a link to learn more about the Museum of Appalachia:
