American Revolution Experience Traveling Exhibit

Presented by the American Battlefield Trust and the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution the **AMERICAN REVOLUTION EXPERIENCE** traveling exhibit is a **FREE** self-guided experience. **Caples House Museum** has the pleasure of hosting this exhibit **October 23 - November 2**. The museum is open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (11:00am - 3:00pm) and tours outside these timeframes can be arranged by emailing [email protected]. The **American Revolution Experience** 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. The exhibit will be moving to other parts of Oregon over the next few months.
