Come learn with us

Since 1974, Thronateeska Heritage Center has been dedicated to the education of our community and visitors from around the region. With flexible programs designed to apply to the Georgia Perfomance Standards for Education, you can easily plan a guided visit to Thronateeska that is not only fun for you and your students, but helps add something interactive, hands on, and entirely unique to their education. The programs at Thronateeska are designed so that you can pick which topics you want us to focus on with you and your students. Tell us what you want to learn!
