Hats off to U.S.!

July 4, 2025 East Corridor and Southeast Lawn

The National WWI Museum and Memorial is proud to be part of the #OnOur250th initiative honoring the United States' 250th birthday in 2026. We stand with other cultural institutions and organizations around the United States (including The New York Historical, Made by Us and the Smithsonian National Museum of American History) in this moment of celebration of the resiliency of the nation – and in remembrance of those who have made great sacrifices towards a more perfect union.

Celebrate with star-spangled salutations! Stop by the front entrance to send off your birthday wishes to Uncle Sam.
