The Museum closed on September 5, 2006 for major architectural renovations and is scheduled to reopen by fall 2008.

The Museum is creating a dramatic new gallery to display the Star-Spangled Banner. Along with ensuring the long-term preservation of this cherished artifact, the exhibition will present the history of the flag and evoke its significance as a national symbol.
