Unearth the ancient history of the Yadkin River Valley
Step into the past and uncover the rich Indigenous history of the Yadkin River Valley! This dynamic program journeys across more than 10,000 years—from the earliest Paleoindian and Archaic peoples of the Piedmont to the thriving Woodland and Contact period villages along the Yadkin.
See how the past lives on today as archaeological discoveries are connected to contemporary Native American tribes in North Carolina and beyond. Featuring a curated display of authentic artifacts from the Lam Museum, this engaging talk offers a rare chance to experience the region’s history up close.
Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the stories, people, and legacy that shaped our community!
