The event will host learning stations highlighting aspects of North Carolina's recreation and tourism, creative arts, environment, health, innovation and technology, social change and creative arts in three regions: Appalachian Mountains, Piedmont Plateau and Atlantic Coastal Plains.

Visitors may hear indigenous music, play games popular in the state, hear literature readings, see motion picture clips, try a hand at creating pottery or face jugs, sample unique foods, examine regional criminal justice issues, witness dance demonstrations and explore outdoor recreational opportunities.

The Mountain Heritage Center will also feature a regional band led by Annie Fain Liden-Barralon (banjo) and her husband Geraud Barralon (guitar/fiddle) and a participatory dance demonstration led by Trina Royar, Mountain Heritage Day coordinator.
