The Tennessee Valley Museum of Art is a spectacular place to visit for art enthusiasts and those with a curious mind. The museum is best known for being the permanent home of the Martin Petroglyph, a pre-Columbian rock carving that was discovered in Colbert Country. The petroglyph features stunning symbols carved from 800 to 1,500 years ago by natives of northwest Alabama and is a marvelous historic and archaeological artifact to see. The museum is also the home of the Trees of Christmas, a yearly display of eye-catching and colorful Christmas trees passionately decorated by Tuscumbia locals and artists. Other things to see at the museum include rotating exhibits featuring the works of national and regional artists, as well as the annual Helen Keller Art Show of Alabama.
