Honoring the Legacy of Dolly Parton💗

At the Genealogy and Preservation Center, we pay tribute to the remarkable life of Dolly Parton.
Raised in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, Dolly dedicated her life to uplifting her home region of Sevier County and the broader Appalachian community. While often known for her music, her impact extends deeply into education.

She established the Dollywood Foundation in 1988, aimed to support the community. Launched the Imagination Library in 1995, inspired by her father’s struggles with illiteracy, this initiative provides free monthly books to children.

Her contributions continue to inspire and transform lives in her community.

All library programs are free and open to the public. If any individual requires accommodation to participate in the library events, programs, or classes please contact the host library location. Please contact the host location at least 3 days before the program/event.
