Very friendly and accommodating customer service. I drove for nearly 40 minutes to explore the museum. And even though they were supposed to close, they were willing to let me inside. I enjoyed exploring this museum a lot and look forward to coming back.

So welcoming! I wanted to come here for my birthday and I couldn't make it on the first night of my stay in DC but on the second day, I've made it!

This museum is so beautifully curated. I learned so much about Palestinian history, thanks to our tour guide! Some things to look forward to during your visit: a sip of sage tea, learning about the distinct embroidery (tatreez) styles of each city, the importance of olives and oranges, resistance art, photos of Palestinian joy, a look into what the Palestinian diaspora is up to, historical and present-day look into the slow but sure ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, which we must advocate against. A must visit if you're in town.

From Museum of the Palestinian People

Immigrants to the United States yearn for a space to tell their stories, yet for Palestinians there has been no such space. In fact, who we are has been told by others; until now. The Museum of the Palestinian People is here to tell our stories; stories that encompass the rich history, vibrant arts and culture, of a people who thrive even in the face of adversity.
