William Bartram and Alabama: A Traveling Exhibit tells the remarkable story of William Bartram's 1775 journey through Creek territory in what is now Alabama. This engaging traveling exhibit explores the adventures of America's first great naturalist-artist, whose four-year expedition through the colonial South produced groundbreaking scientific discoveries and vivid cultural documentation.
The exhibit is sponsored by the Caroline Marshall Draughon Center for the Arts & Humanities in the College of Liberal Arts at Auburn University. The exhibit is funded in part by the Leah Rawls Atkins Endowed Fund for Excellence and the Ann Draughon Cousins Endowed Fund for Excellence.
This exhibit is located in the Richard C. Hunt Reception Hall between the Fort Payne Opera House and the DeKalb Hosiery Museum.
