The sun sets over the Cahaba Homestead Project following the 75th anniversary of the city of Trussville in June 2022.
Trussville's inaugural Heritage Days will take place April 27-30 to celebrate and showcase Trussville's historic district.
The four-day Heritage Days, organized by the Cahaba Homestead Heritage Foundation, will feature arts, music, history, culture, a pickleball tournament and tour of Cahaba Project homes. Most events are free to the public, including a Saturday evening concert and picnic on the Mall.
Cahaba Project Home Tour tickets go on sale April 1 through the Trussville Area Chamber of Commerce’s website, trussvillechamber.com, for $20. Ticket sales benefit the Cahaba Homestead Heritage Foundation’s Stone Gateway Project.
The Gee's Bend Quilters of Alabama, who share a unique Great Depression origin with the Cahaba Project, will lead a quilting workshop at the Trussville Public Library.
Local businesses will offer "Heritage Days Deals" through the weekend. If your organization is interested in being a Heritage Days community sponsor, please contact CahabaHHF@gmail.com.
