An art museum you can walk with friends
Washington, D.C., USA

The Smithsonian American Art Museum holds one of the largest collections of American art anywhere — folk art, landscapes, modern masters — inside the grand Greek Revival building it shares with the National Portrait Gallery in downtown Washington.
Museums are better with company, and this one was made for a group visit: everyone looks at the same view, so you can linger where the conversation lingers instead of drifting apart the way museum groups always do in person.
Like every Smithsonian museum it’s free to visit in person — and this virtual version is free from anywhere on earth, no trip to Washington required.
What you'll see
- The landmark Greek Revival building
- Downtown Washington’s Penn Quarter around it
- Shared with the National Portrait Gallery
- A museum visit where the group actually stays together
