• Farragut Museum, 11408 Municipal Center Drive in Town Hall, is taking a hiatus as it prepares for its newest exhibit, “The Craftsmen of Yesterday,” featuring antique farm tools and other implements.

The museum, which closed Monday Jan. 10, will remain closed through Monday, Jan. 31, and will re-open at 11 a.m., Tuesday, Feb. 1, with the exhibit. “Visitors will travel back in time to see the fascinating tools used by farmers in this area during the early to mid-1900s,” the Town’s website stated. “In conjunction with the exhibit, the Museum will unveil a country store scene on the vignette.”

A special “Friends of the Museum” preview is scheduled for Jan. 31. Those who are not already a Friend of the Farragut Museum and would like to attend the event may sign up during the preview. Admission is free and open to the public.

Typical museum hours are from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday. For more information, call 865-966-7057.
