SUMMARY:“Living Worlds”
DESCRIPTION:Earth is a planet shaped by life. From the forests that help stabilize our climate\, to the winds carrying life-sustaining water and oxygen to far-flung parts of the globe\, the fingerprints of life are visible even from many light years away. \nWhether earthly or alien\, all life leaves a trace. Join narrator Daveed Diggs on a journey through space and time to discover how life makes Earth liveable\, where it could be found elsewhere in the cosmos\, and what new technologies we might use to find it. Along the way\, you’ll learn how light and color can help us spot other living worlds even from vast distances—and develop a new appreciation for the one-of-a-kind planet right beneath our feet. \nShow length ~25 min. \nThis program is followed by a quick look at the constellations\, planets and other celestial wonders visible in the night sky from our region. \n.avia-button-avb6a66535a67841:hover {background-color: #444444 !important;color: #ffffff !important;transform: translateZ(0) scale(1.03); }Click here to register online for tickets

SUMMARY:“Dark Matter Mystery”
DESCRIPTION:“Dark Matter Mystery” takes you on the biggest quest of contemporary astrophysics – the search for dark matter. We know today that approximately a quarter of the Universe is filled with a mysterious glue known as dark matter. We know that it is out there\, but we have no idea what it is made out of. \nIn this program you will learn why we know that dark matter exists and how this search is one of the most challenging and exciting searches science has to offer. Join the scientists on their hunt for dark matter with experiments in space and deep underground. Will they be able to solve… the Dark Matter Mystery? \nShow length ~40 min. \n.avia-button-avb6a66535a65cca:hover {background-color: #444444 !important;color: #ffffff !important;transform: translateZ(0) scale(1.03); }Click here to register online for tickets

SUMMARY:Stained Glass: Hot Air Balloons
DESCRIPTION:Learn traditional stained glass techniques from start to finish.\n\n\nChoose from an assortment of glass colors\, textures and transparencies to completely customize it into a one of a kind piece. You’ll learn how to cut glass\, grid it to fit a pattern\, apply copper foil and finally solder it all together. This is a beginners class\, perfect for anyone that’s curious about the process and techniques that go into making Tiffany Style Stained Glass. \n \nPlease wear close-toed shoes and natural fibers like cotton/wool (jeans and a t-shirt work great). All long hair should be pulled back. \nAge 10+\, under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. \n\n\n\n\nJoy Riggs started making Stained Glass in 2000. Her passion for it ultimately led her to open Studio 116 in Kingsport where she specializes in custom stained glass panels and whimsical suncatchers. Joy loves to create unique pieces based on her customers’ ideas\, and enjoys the challenge of trying something different.

SUMMARY:Battle of Island Flats 250th Anniversary Commemoration
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special 250th anniversary commemoration interpreting the Battle of Island Flats — the first major battle of the Cherokee War of 1776 and one of the opening conflicts of the American Revolution on the southern frontier — on Saturday\, July 25\, from 10 am to 3 pm and Sunday\, July 26\, from noon to 3 pm at Exchange Place Living History Farm\, 4812 Orebank Road in Kingsport. \nFought near the Long Island of the Holston in July 1776\, the battle saw frontier settlers and Virginia militia from Virginia’s New River Valley clash with Cherokee warriors led by Dragging Canoe during a coordinated campaign against the expanding settlements along the Holston\, Watauga\, and Nolichucky rivers. The battle marked a major turning point in the struggle for control of the southern Appalachian frontier and helped open Southwest Virginia\, upper East Tennessee\, and eventually Kentucky to expanding settlement. \nAt this two-day commemoration Cherokee interpreters from the Appalachian region and Virginia militia living historians will bring the frontier world of the 18th-century to life near the very landscape where these dramatic events unfolded. Visitors will experience: \n\nLiving History Encampments – Explore authentic frontier camps and learn about daily life on the Tennessee frontier during the Revolutionary era\nCherokee Cultural Interpretations – Learn about Cherokee history\, lifeways\, and the broader Cherokee War of 1776. Displays/activities will include regional Native American artifacts with the tribal archaeologist on hand to answer questions\, Cherokee leather crafts and Native American music played on a Cherokee flute throughout the day\nHistoric Foodways – Discover the foods\, cooking methods\, and survival skills used by frontier settlers and Cherokee communities.\nBattlefield Interpretation – Learn how the battle unfolded through maps\, historical analysis and interpretation of the Island Flats battlefield.\nHistoric Weapons Demonstrations – See period long rifles\, trade guns and other historic firearms with scheduled firing demonstrations and a display of war clubs with a weapons demonstration by the Cherokee War Chief.\nPrimary Sources & Historical Documents – View reproductions of original Revolutionary-era documents relating to the battle and its aftermath.\n\nOn Sunday\, July 26\, at 1 pm\, Cherokee Medicine Man Lee “Ewani” Eames will give a presentation on “The Healing Herbs of the Appalachian Mountains.” He will bring with him some of the herbs that our ancestors have used for centuries throughout east Tennessee and surrounding areas\, that have helped to heal and sustain both European and Native American descendants alike. \nSponsored by Hamlett-Dobson Funeral Homes and Exchange Place\, this free event is part of Fun Fest. No ticket or registration is required.
