Smithsonian Arts + Industries Building, Washington DC

This is the countries largest museum system with different museums covering a range of history science and art.

Went there few months back. The exterior “had me at hello”…. The iridescent glass sculpture along the building exterior is one of the most beautiful thing everrrr. The exhibits are also very interesting and interactive, loved everything about this, very friendly stuffs and thought provoking exhibits, so much to enjoy and envision here!

A show designed by architecture firm Rockwell Group, highlights 150 innovations, technologies, and artifacts.

The shimmering display at the entrance, as photographed, is a made of dichroic glass, the type used by NASA in the 50s and 60s to protect astronauts and spacecraft from radiation.

I highly recommend the futures exhibit. Our entire family enjoyed ourselves including our 5th graders. The exhibits are interactive, engaging and an eye-opening, hopeful look into the future. My kiddies thought it was “very cool”.

My least favorite of all the Smithsonian museums. Beautiful, but small in comparison, building with "innovation" that seemed more like an agenda than exciting. Hands on exhibits have quite a wait on a busy day. I would be surprised if we were there for an hour. If we had paid for entry I would have been even more disappointed. One child was most excited about the Eternals costumes on display.

A beautiful building that sadly is temporarily closed again. It was the first purpose built museum in the Smithsonian and is the birthplace of a lot of the ones we have now! I’m really excited to see what’s in store for this wonderful versatile place and I hope to visit it again soon.

Exhibit closing July 6 but worth the visit if you can make it. You can see how the past shaped the future and things being worked on for the future.

Ai and other technologies at work.everything looks great and inspiring, but many exhibits are not user friendly. The building is lovely

On a day trip we found the Future Exhibit. Very excited to see how the future was viewed in the past and what is being predicted now. It is quite unique and the museum itself is beautiful.

We saw an exhibition examining the future, which was really cool. The building itself has been restored and looks great. It's a wonderful resource to have a free museum like the Smithsonian available to everyone.

A small museum with displays on the future. About How we've thought of the future in the past and how we are thinking about the future now.

It has some interesting stuff. More hands on for kids. The are closing to remodel it will be interesting to see what they come up with.

Punktabzug, das es sehr überfüllt war und man kaum an die einzelnen Dinge ran kam. Ansonsten aber sehr interessant. Eintritt frei. Viele hands on Bereiche.

Wonderful and discovering dome of the attraction are really underestimate but anyway showing our world is in a huge globalisation and soo we csn fo better, i must see in Dc.

The futures exhibit was very cool and the overall building was beautiful. I'm very glad this is open to the public again

I was in the area of the building, I saw a large crowd mingling, found out this was the weekend of a new exhibit opening. The exhibit called Futures, will run through 2022. Beautiful building, great architecturally aesthetic exterior, had been closed to the public for a extended period. Now open every day, except closed on Tuesday, per their website.

The Futures exhibit was amazing! We probably spent 4 or 5 hours there in total. I know that exhibit is leaving soon, but if it is any indicator of their typical exhibit quality I will certainly go back

Wow! The future is now. Exhibit is leaving DC early July so go there fast if you want to see the future before it arrives. I went for the summer solstice when many of the museum’s were open until midnight.
