About the Donald W. Reynolds Museum & Education Center
Visit the Museum and Education Center to view the fascinating array of Mount Vernon artifacts and learn more about George Washington. Get early access now during a special preview period to our new exhibition, George Washington: A Revolutionary Life, opening in June.
Certain areas and attractions in the Education Center may be off-view due to ongoing renovations.
See galleries and theaters where you can learn about Washington through interactive displays, an action adventure movie, short films produced by The History Channel, immersive experiences, and a rich and comprehensive collection of more than 700 objects which give an unprecedented look at the personal effects of the Washington family.
Make sure you don’t miss Washington’s dentures, an interpretation of Martha Washington’s wedding gown, and a ledger book used to keep track of estate finances.
The Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association opened the Donald W. Reynolds Museum and Education Center in 2006. These exhibit spaces would not have been possible without two major grants, totaling 24 million dollars, from the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation and support from the foundation’s chairman, Fred W. Smith.
