How were the lives of ordinary people affected by the events of the American Revolutionary War?
From an award-winning website to an in-demand pop-up exhibition, the American Revolution Experience Traveling Exhibit, a collaborative project of the American Battlefield Trust and the Daughters of the American Revolution (opens in a new window) is beginning a new phase in its quest to connect modern audiences with the fascinating story of our nation’s origin. The American Revolution Experience will travel to scores of libraries, historical societies and museums through 2027, introducing visitors to a cast of historical characters with diverse experiences throughout the conflict and the places they visited on their journey.
This innovative pop-up exhibition includes display panels and interactive digital kiosks that use storytelling, illustration, technology and unique artifacts and primary accounts to connect modern audiences with the people and places that shaped the birth of our nation.
The Experience will be available to view at the Winona County History Center from 10am – 4pm daily from May 3rd, 2026 through May 14th, 2026.
