The Nevada Society of Daughters of the American Revolution is excited to announce the opening of TheAmerican Revolution Experience, an innovative pop-up exhibition using display panels and interactive digital kiosks to connect today's audiences with the people and places that shaped the birth of our nation.
The exhibit invites visitors to consider the choice faced by members of the revolutionary generation as tensions mounted in the 1770s: Would these ordinary citizens risk their lives and livelihoods in pursuit of liberty? Or would they remain loyal subjects of the British crown, coming into conflict with neighbors and family?
The exhibit surfaces diverse viewpoints and experiences, touching on the journeys — both literal and figurative — of Patriots and Loyalists, men and women, Black and Native populations and even international allies. Rather than focusing only on generals and famous statesmen, it introduces audiences to drummer boys, military mapmakers, and other ordinary people who were impacted by global events.
