Chilhowee Park Advisory Group
East Knoxville is home to the iconic and historically significant Chilhowee Park. This site which has annually hosted the Tennessee Valley Fair and exhibits at the Jacob Building, with daily activities experienced at the Muse and Zoo Knoxville for year round visitors, has adapted to various cultural and environmental conditions over the years. The vision for Chilhowee Park's future is now being reimagined by its community members for generations to enjoy. The Chilhowee Park Advisory Group (CPAG) has been formed to begin shaping the framework to begin guiding these efforts. |
