For decades, the first ladies exhibition has been one of the most popular attractions at the Smithsonian Institution. It is beloved by visitors who come to admire the famous collection of gowns and to learn about the contributions made by the women who wore them.
Over the years, the Museum has expanded the collection and updated the exhibition. The changes keep the collection engaging for visitors who appreciate the evolving examination of the role played by the country’s first ladies as well as the beautiful objects that belonged to them.
The exhibition was made possible by the generous support of The Biography Channel.
