The National Museum of African American History and Culture is now open to the public. As we gradually reopen the museum, we’re putting safety first with enhanced measures in place to ensure the safety and well-being of visitors, volunteers and staff.
The museum is closed on Monday and Tuesday and open Wednesday through Sunday from 10:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m., except Dec. 25. Visitors are able to enter the museum until 4:00 p.m. Free timed-entry passes are required for entry.
