The American Village
This pioneering village located in Motevallo, Alabama teaches American liberty
through experience-based academic programs on American Government, Civics, and
History.
The American Village in Montevallo,
Alabama promises to be one of the
best experiences you can give your
students! This campus was designed
by a former teacher and a prominent,
local architect to depict life in
Booth Western Art Museum
Colonial America. Programs at The
American Village fully immerse your
students and will give them a deeper,
more rich understanding of our
Nation’s founding.
Liberty, the premier educational program
at the American village, tells the story of
how and why America is free. Students
are fully engaged with six vignettes
featuring critical moments in the struggle
for American independence. Students will
express their position as patriots during
the Stamp Act Rally, they will vote on the
Virginia Resolves as delegates to the
Virginia Convention, and represent their
states at the Constitutional Convention.
They will respond to the call of the
Continental Army and muster with
Washington’s troops. They may even
encounter a Redcoat on their way to
deliver a secret message to Paul Revere.
This is an experience your students will
not soon forget!
