Donald W. Reynolds Center for American Art and Portraiture - Museum in Washington - G St NW, USA

This is such a great place to visit. It's more than just portraits! Also, make sure you enjoy the atrium. Grab a drink and bite to eat and just enjoy the stunning space. Take your time to wander through all the amazing spaces and look up; the architecture throughout the building changes and is beautiful.

My family and I attended a Saam Arcade Art showcasing how music and sound is essential to video games. It was a fun and educational event. They had a scavenger hunt which encouraged us to visit most of the Art Sections. When an event is on going, it's still a great place to visit for all ages. We checked out numerous unique and interesting art pieces in the galleries. Will visit again.

One of the Best experiences you can have in D.C. It's enlightening and soul filling. A large and diverse offering of artists of different eras and genres. Come here and expand your horizons and views thru eyes and minds of talented artists. D.C. N.W |X

One of the many stops I had to make to appreciate our art history in the United States. I won't post photos of the paintings and sculptures (go admire them yourself!) but no matter your taste in art you'll find it here. It's also an excellent place to rest inside, out of the elements - see pictures!

One of my favorite museums in DC. Not only is it free but it also stays open later (7pm) than many of the other museums in the area. Hall of Presidents is impressive, especially the Obama and Clinton portraits. Go up to the third floor for an impressively large portrait of LL Cool J. The architecture of the restoration hall is classic and not to be missed.

You can find the most beautiful art pieces here.

A wonderful exhibition and event space, with a gorgeous inner courtyard -atrium for music, food and relaxing. The theatre in the lower level has state of the art sound and piano. You learn the history of America wandering through the different galleries from 1600 to the present day. Now highlighting more diverse perspectives and visions. The gift shop is top notch ( as are all the Smithsonian shops) with original, eclectic gifts.

Spent about an hour walking through the multi-floored museum not really knowing what to expect. Very quiet and filled with security making sure nobody touches or gets too close to any of the exhibit pieces. Upon entering, security guard informed me that I had to wear my backpack on my chest so that I don't accidentally bump anything while turning around if it were on my back. I didn't get to see everything because of time restrictions, but I'd definitely like to return.
