Celebrating American Indian Art with an all-new Gallery at Epcot American Adventure

The American Heritage Galley is located inside Epcots American Adventure, off the rotunda from the Voice of Liberty performances; the content of the exhibit space changes, with the current exhibit celebrating American Indian Art. It is a perfect opportunity to pass the time waiting for the voices of liberty or the American adventure.

Explore the artistry of American Indian communities—and learn about traditional Native influences. “Creating Tradition: Innovation and Change in American Indian Art” showcases authentic, historical Native artifacts alongside contemporary works of American Indian art—demonstrating examples of cultural traditions handed down through generations. Native communities from 7 geographic regions across the United States are included in the gallery. Their art represents the richness, depth, and diversity of Native cultures, past and present. Among the featured artists with works on display are fashion designer Loren Aragon (Acoma Pueblo), noted doll-maker Glenda McKay (Ingalik-Athabascan), and Juanita Growing Thunder (Assiniboine Sioux) from the Growing Thunder family of Montana.
