The National Museum of American History
We help people understand the past in order to make sense of the present and shape a more humane future.
The museum hosts Althea Thomas, longtime organist for Montgomery's Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, for a gospel music performance, public conversation, and acceptance of her organ shoes into the national collections. Saturday, Mar. 23, 2 p.m.
Enjoy a variety of daily short films. Special features include They Shall Not Grow Old, a groundbreaking documentary about World War I with enhanced historical footage, and a Quentin Tarantino retrospective Mar. 20-24. Check the Theater page for showtimes.
Anthea M. Hartig is the museum's 10th director, and the first woman to hold the post. An award-winning public historian and cultural heritage expert, she is dedicated to making the nation’s richly diverse history accessible and relevant.
