Educational Outreach

The Museum Center at 5ive Points offers 8 educational trunks that meet all K-12 TN State educational standards. These trunks make learning history interactive and fun! Whether taken into the classroom or used during a field trip, children love getting this hands-on history experience. Our goal is to provide our education programs for free to school systems in our region. We need your help to make it happen by raising $50,000.00 to support this program.

General Admission

Everyone deserves to come to the Museum Center at 5ive Points and learn about our history and culture. With the cost of living rising throughout our community, we don’t want anyone to miss out on the chance to gather, learn, and grow. Help us make the museum accessible to all members of the Ocoee Region, by donating to support FREE general admission at the museum. Our goal is to raise $10,000.00 to fund this effort.

General Operating Fund

As a non-profit organization, the Museum and Cultural Center at 5ive Points relies on support from our community to continue celebrating the story and heritage of the Ocoee Region through exhibits, experiences, and events. A gift to the general operating fund goes to help us fulfill our mission of providing a place for our community to gather, learn, and grow as we connect with our past, enjoy our present, and dream of our future.
