Visitor Center

Start your visit on a high note at our historic and culture-rich Clinton Visitor Center. Designed by Belinda Stewart of Eupora, MS, and constructed with period materials and period architectural details including a porch and "dogtrot," the Center has the look and authentic charm of one of the 19th century farmhouses once located along the Natchez Trace. The handmade bricks of the exterior are the same kind used in Monticello and Mount Vernon; the cypress used in the Center's porch supports, stair railings and interior features was reclaimed from a South Louisiana sugar mill demolished after more than a century in operation.

The Visitor Center not only offers a great opportunity to view artifacts and photos, it's also a hub for fun and fascinating cultural activities. Our museum room, highlighting the history of the Natchez Trace through Clinton, provides changing displays throughout the year, and every month hosts the "Mississippi Old Time Music Society" jam sessions. Our consignment shop showcases the work of local artisans, with products that range from fine pottery to beautiful jewelry, from books by local and regional writers of note to high quality paintings and prints, from Natchez Trace memorabilia to delicious Mississippi food products.

With a spacious public meeting room and internet access (including wireless for those who bring their own computers), the Clinton Visitor Center is the place to be.
