Funk Heritage Center

The Funk Heritage Center is a museum on the Reinhardt University campus dedicated to Native American cultures and history. Multiple exhibition spaces display artifacts, crafted objects, and historical items from the southeastern region.

The center opened in 1999 and received official state recognition in 2003 as Georgia's interpretive center for frontier and southeastern Native American history. This designation established it as a key institution for preserving and presenting these histories.

The center displays objects and artwork that reflect how Native American peoples lived in this region. The collections help visitors understand the daily lives and traditions of these communities.

The center is located on a university campus that welcomes visitors, and you can explore the exhibitions at your own pace. Check opening hours before you visit and confirm availability, as campus schedules can vary, especially on weekends or during university breaks.

The center has a dedicated theater that screens documentary films about the histories and cultures of southeastern Native peoples. These screenings complement the exhibitions and offer another way to engage with these stories.
