In May 2021, Humanities Tennessee named FODC a recipient of a 2021 General Grant for a Virtual Reality Cave Tour. 

This project entails creating a 360-degree virtual reality film touring Dunbar Cave, making the experience available to those who are unable to participate in a traditional cave tour. Park ranger and project manager, John Ball; archaeologist Dr. Jan Simek; and indigenous historian Beau Carroll, who is Cherokee, will guide the viewers.  

The tour views Mississippian dark zone cave art, indigenous artwork, stoke marks, and previously unprotected, hence vandalized, portions of the cave.

This project is funded in part by a grant from Humanities Tennessee, an independent affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. The findings and conclusions of this film do not necessarily represent the views of Humanities Tennessee or of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
