Extensive collection is accurate

Visited here with my partner and parents, the collection is massive and a worthy visit when in DC, one of the many great museums in DC. They have items from every facet of American Culture, things like dress donated by Celia Cruz, items from Krispy Kreme, Electric Street Car from St Louis. The collections are mind boggling.
