The University of Alabama’s Moundville Archaeological Park will conduct the 32nd annual Moundville Native American Festival online Oct. 5-10.

While the festival will not be held in-person this year, park staff developed a virtual experience that will include Native American performers, demonstrators, and living history teachers. Online content will teach and celebrate Native American culture through interactive experiences, live streams, and prerecorded videos.

“I’m really excited to go virtual this year because I believe that we will be able to reach more people and encourage them to explore southeastern Native American heritage and culture,” said Lindsey Gordon, education outreach coordinator at Moundville Archaeological Park. “Even though we are going on the web, we will still have the same great performances and demonstrations as well as some new components, such as park-focused lectures and video series.”
