The Rebels With A Cause touring exhibit made its debut on July 3, 1999, at the Carnegie Institute’s Oakland Library in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, showcasing a unique collection of artifacts and stories centered around individuals who made bold, transformative contributions to American history and culture. Since its launch, the exhibit has traveled extensively, featuring in over fifty prestigious venues across the United States, where it has engaged audiences with its exploration of rebellion, courage, and the power of individual action in shaping the nation.
Highlights of the tour have included appearances at prominent institutions such as the American Philatelic Museum, the Smithsonian’s exhibit American Presidency: A Glorious Burden, and NASA’s Classroom of the Future. The exhibit has also been featured at historical sites tied to America's Founding Fathers, such as Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello and James Madison’s Montpelier, as well as significant government buildings including the United States Capitol, the Virginia State Capitol, the West Virginia State Capitol, and the Louisiana State Capitol.
In addition to educational and historical institutions, Rebels With A Cause has appeared at major universities such as Fairmont State University, James Madison University, and Loyola University New Orleans, where it has offered students and the academic community a closer look at the lives and legacies of groundbreaking Americans. The exhibit's reach has extended to high-profile public gatherings, notably featuring at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, as well as at key political events such as the 2000, 2004, and 2008 Republican National Conventions and the 2008 and 2016 Democratic National Conventions.
Through each stop, Rebels With A Cause has offered viewers a chance to engage with historical artifacts and stories that highlight the courage, resilience, and vision of Americans who challenged the status quo. The exhibit remains an influential educational resource, inspiring new generations to reflect on the impact of principled defiance and innovation in the ongoing journey of American democracy.
