Step back in time and explore the deep roots of our region’s history. From 1400 to 1700, the Tuscarora Indian tribe was a dominant and influential force in the land we now call eastern North Carolina.

In this engaging presentation, we will dive into the tribe's rich culture, complex history, and lasting impact on North Carolina's colonial era. Whether you are a lifelong history buff or simply curious about the stories shaped by our local landscape, this session offers a fascinating window into the past.
