September Spotlight: The Molina Family Gallery

As the first dedicated museum space on the National Mall celebrating the U.S. Latino experience, the gallery’s inaugural exhibition will tell our national history from the perspective of the diverse Latino community who live it.

Last month, the Office of Visitor Services and Volunteer Management hosted their September Smithsonian Volunteer Enrichment program. During the program, participants learned about the Molina Family Latino Gallery at the National Museum of American History that will open in 2022. As the first dedicated museum space on the National Mall celebrating the U.S. Latino experience, the gallery’s inaugural exhibition will tell our national history from the perspective of the diverse Latino community who live it. If you were unable to join us for the live program (or want to watch it again), the recording is now available!
