The DC History Center is a 501(c)(3) community-supported educational non-profit and research organization that deepens understanding of our city’s past to connect, empower, and inspire.
We seek to reach into all eight Wards to preserve and elevate the stories of Washington’s diverse people, neighborhoods, and institutions. We will do this work as a welcoming and inclusive community that fosters curiosity and nurtures civic engagement to strengthen our city for all.
