The Southern Gospel Museum and Hall of Fame is a site operated in Dollywood, in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, by the Southern Gospel Music Association. It was founded in 1997. The Hall of Fame consists of a pioneer in the field of Southern gospel music; members are selected by SGMA each year, and are honored by the descriptive plaque and portrait in the Hall itself. The museum contains thousands of memorabilia items and souvenir shops. The animatronic quartet, sponsored by Bill Gaither, sings "Give the World a Smile." Other interesting items on display include the first Blackwood Brothers bus replica, interactive video and sound clips, as well as the Hall of Fame's bronze plaque. More than a million people visit the facility every year.
Starting in 2004, Hall of Fame began holding their annual popular induction ceremony. Dollywood closed the door to the public, and the whole day was filled with musical performances.
The Hall of Fame is currently under the leadership of Executive Director Charles Waller, who is also the producer of the Grand Ole Gospel Reunion in Knoxville, TN. Waller has done a lot to bring the gospel music legends before a new and younger audience, and is credited by many as Bill Gaither's direct inspiration for his homecoming video. Waller's contribution to the Hall of Fame has proved fruitful in honoring the southern gospel music heritage.
