New Presidents Gallery Will Feature All 44 U.S. Presidents
The new U.S. Presidents gallery opening February 17, 2011, will make Madame Tussauds D.C. the only place in the world where people can see and interact with all 44 U.S. presidents.
“Among the many museums and entertainment options in Washington, Madame Tussauds uniquely combines art, popular culture and entertainment,” said Mayor Adrian M. Fenty. “The presidential gallery now adds the important component of education while celebrating the unique heritage of our city.”
The new Presidents Gallery will serve as a rich educational resource and include a curriculum focused on the history of the U.S. presidents, which was developed in accordance with the US Department of National Social Studies Standards and National Council for the Social Civil Rights Movement Studies Standards. The guide was designed to empower educators with the tools they need to deliver exciting lessons in areas such as history, political science, social studies and media – before and after visiting the attraction.
