Celebrating Cosby Returns To GSMNP

Great Smoky Mountains National Park officials are inviting the public to attend Celebrating Cosby: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. These are community programs every Friday from June 23 through July 14 at the Cosby Campground Amphitheater. The programs honor the rich cultural and natural history of the Cosby area through storytelling, dance, music, and history walks. The programs feature musicians, dancers, storytellers, moonshiners, and former residents who once lived in the park. Visitors are invited to step back in time during these summer programs to experience the stories, music, and mountain ways of people living in the Cosby area both then and now. Programs will be held rain or shine. Visitors are welcome to find seating in the amphitheater or bring their own chairs or blankets. In case of rain, “Celebrating Cosby” programs will move to the covered picnic pavilion adjacent to Cosby Campground.
