What’s On

Join us in celebrating our nation's rich cultural heritage and history with vibrant performances, lectures, and family activities in honor of federally recognized heritage and history months.

Performances, movies, daily digital treasures, and more.

Join us on Fridays for some creative fun! Check out a Portrait Discovery Kit to explore the museum. Explore a different art material each week.

Wine & Design brings happy hour and postal-theme crafting together once a month at the Postal Museum! Whether you are a letter-writing lover, an Etsy-fanatic or just looking for something new to do—join the club!

Relax and Take 5! with free, live jazz in the Kogod Courtyard every third Thursday. Stop by the Courtyard Café for refreshments. For added fun, borrow a board game to play during the concert.

Bring your young people to Discovery Theater to experience heritage, science, and culture in a memorable way. Each season we tap into the vast resources of the Smithsonian to present relevant, culturally accurate entertaining programs.
