Smithsonian Shop-o-rama

Sure, the museums are great, but the Smithsonian Institution gift shops are something to experience!

Now, you can enjoy shopping at all of the Smithsonian museum shops by visiting the all-new Smithsonian Institution online shopping site at www.smithsonianstore.com.

Many items were inspired by artworks from the Smithsonian American Art Museum collection. Mike Wilkins' Preamble is made wearable—transformed into a fun necktie and a silk scarf. Perfect for all history buffs and license plate collectors!
