Established by an act of Congress in 1846, The Smithsonian Institution is the world's largest museum, education, and research complex--and it belongs to all the American people. Its mission is to enrich the lives of the American people and increase the diffusion of knowledge. We will virtually visit the various galleries, exhibits, and displays. Go behind the scenes to see the many facets of the museums and their treasures.

Moderator: Deb Price has a hankering for history and learning. She is a retired educator who has presented dozens of OLLI programs.
