History

The Chinese American Museum in Washington, DC (CAMDC) is a bold undertaking, currently underway, to establish a new, national museum to preserve, exhibit, and lead a meaningful, positive dialogue on the Chinese American experience--its history, culture, and contributions to our country and the world.

Specialties

The Chinese American Museum in Washington, DC's vision is to be a compelling voice for Chinese American history, culture, and recognition. Through our efforts we will build a community around a continuous discourse about how Chinese Americans, their culture, contributions, and potential are all an important part of the American fabric.
