Anacostia Community Museum

Museum exhibition themes include community, identity and modernization; the urban community as a global village; community, cultural encounters and mediation; and changing demographics and legacy preservation. Upcoming exhibitions based on the legacy collection and focusing on African American
history and culture (on view through mid-2010) include “Jubilee: African American Celebration” and
“The African Presence in Mexico.” Exhibitions reflecting the museum’s expanded direction begin in fall 2010 with “Across the Counter: The Changing Face of Urban Neighborhood Merchants.”
