Thank you for making Museum Day 2009 such a huge success! Please check back for information on Museum Day 2010.
Until then, check out our participating museums and upcoming events on our Twitter page.
Smith McDowell House Museum is the oldest brick home in Asheville, NC. Built in the 1840s it was the home of wealthy business man James Smith, then of his son-in-law and Civil War veteran William W. McDowell. It was later home to a mayor, friends of George Vanderbilt, a distinguished doctor and a movie industry executive.
Museums and cultural venues participate in Museum Day voluntarily. Smithsonian magazine encourages museum visitation, but is not responsible for individual museum content or participation.
