Blue & Gray Days is an annual living history event at The Carter House and Carnton that allows guests to step into the past. Re-enactors and living historians set up camp sites and perform demonstrations. You can see a blacksmith busy at work, play a Civil War era game of cricket, and meet some very interesting historical figures.
