National Museum of the American Latino

Established by Congress in 2020, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Latino honors the dreams, challenges and triumphs of U.S. Latinos and elevates their stories within the nation’s narrative. The museum also creates transformative experiences, fosters a deeper understanding of American history and culture, and connects communities nationwide.

The museum is proud to announce its new home in the former Smithsonian’s Arts & Industries Building. As the transformation of the building begins, continue visiting the museum’s exhibitions at the Molina Family Latino Gallery in the National Museum of American History or on the web.
