Anacostia Museum explores American history, society and creative expression from an African American perspective. It provides a storehouse of information on the subject.

The museum encourages the collection, protection and preservation of materials that reflect the history and traditions of families, organizations, individuals and communities.

The Academy is a virtual learning environment that features links to resources, information on artifacts in all the collections and streaming video presentations from leading scholars in fields related to the discovery, interpretation and preservation of African American history and material culture.

At this lesser- known Smithsonian museum, the spotlight is on African- American culture and issues. There is no permanent collection, but the museum provides innovative, special exhibits. They tend to be current and interactive, with many suited to children.

Admission is free.

    What I love the most about this museum was the arts and crafts being exhibited.  The Asian arts were splendid, you will learn every detail and the background of its art. You should check it out sometime, it will be a blast once you are there. nofollow
