Om
Snabba fakta: Detta Smithsonianmuseum berättar historierna om Washingtons Anacostia-område och omgivande samhällen genom linsen av urban förändring och motståndskraft. Dess över 20 000 årliga besökare utforskar utställningar som blandar lokal historia med nationella samtal om kultur, identitet och social rättvisa.
Höjdpunkter: Tre enorma lapptäcken hänger i museets centralgalleri, handsydda av lokala invånare för att kartlägga deras minnen av områdets försvunna landmärken. Ett föreställer den gamla Turner's Arena-brottningsklubben där Sugar Ray Robinson en gång kämpade, sydd i guldtråd mot en djupblå bakgrund.
Insidertips
- Visit the lower-level resource room where you can flip through oral history transcripts from longtime Anacostia residents.
- The museum shop carries work by local artists and authors you won't find at the larger Smithsonian gift shops.
- Pair your visit with a walk along the nearby Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, just 10 minutes away on foot.
- Photography is allowed in all galleries, but skip the flash to preserve the fabric details in the textile exhibits.
