A new group of artifacts is on display in the American Heritage Gallery at EPCOT. The gallery, located inside The American Adventure pavilion, showcases American Indian art from Native communities across the U.S.A.

The new display is located at the front of the gallery, viewable from in the gallery itself and outside in the rotunda. These items are from the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Seminole Museum and will be on display until September, the museum reports.
The display includes two Seminole shirts. The blue one was made circa the 1940s by Ida Cypress, high-lighting the common patchwork style of the tribe.
The flower-patterned shirt belonged to alligator wrestler Billy Walker.
These two items were crafted by Geneva Linda Belesto in the 2010s. The baseball cap and stethoscope are adorned with glass beads.
This colorful bucket-style hat was made in the mid to late 20th century. The moccasins are from the 1830s, made of leather, silk, glass beads, and cotton thread.
The display case previously housed dolls, apparel, and accessories, also on loan from the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Seminole Museum. Check out more photos.
