In 1937 the General Assembly created a state museum to house World War I mementoes and other collections from the state, the Tennessee Historical Society and other groups. This museum was located in the lower level of the War Memorial Building until it was moved into the new James K. Polk Center in 1981. The Tennessee State Museum currently occupies three floors, covering approximately 120,000 square feet with more than 60,000 square feet devoted to exhibits.
“The mission of the Tennessee State Museum is to procure, preserve, exhibit, and interpret objects which relate to the social, political, economic, and cultural history of Tennessee and Tennesseans, and to provide exhibitions and programs for the educational and cultural enrichment of the citizens of the state.”

Nashville, TN - We had guests in town and they wanted to see Backstage and take the Grand Ole Opry tour and so on 10/25/2010 we went. The tour starts with a film showing you a little of the history of the Opry and then after the history, they show you how the flood in Nashville May 2010 affected the building and everything that went into getting the Opry back on stage. The film was interesting, very informative and about 15 to 20 minutes in length. After the film you leave the building to see the parking area and the door to the Backstage area of the Opry. This is the door the singers use to enter into the backstage area of the Opry House.

“I have always loved this song and it is the only one I did not write from my current project,” exclaims James Wesley! “Andrew Dorff had an incredible way of writing and this song has held a special place in my heart ever since I recorded it.”

The song reflects on seeing more than the physical image of another person, encouraging love, trust and the desire to show someone how much you see that others over-look.
