Each summer, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park Service teams up with Cocke County Tourism to host the “Celebrating Cosby” community programming which honors the rich cultural and natural history of the Cosby area through storytelling, dance, music, and history walks.
“These programs offer incredible opportunities for visitors to discover Cosby by experiencing it firsthand with the people who live and work here,” said Chief of Resource Education Stephanie Kyriazis. “We are grateful to our friends from the local community who are leading these unique experiences.”
Plan your visit to the Smokies to include these fun, free events held in the Cosby Campgrounds.
