The Museum was built to feature inclusive design and sets a global example for accessibility. From the way you enter the building to the way you interact with exhibits, the designers and program directors ensured the experience to be inclusive and accessible for everyone.

“In our museum, disability will not be treated as a special condition, but as an ordinary part of life that affects us all,” said Stuart Murray, the museum’s president and CEO. Murray notes the federal museum, exceeds the criteria for accessible design set out by the National Building Code and Smithsonian guidelines.

In the end, what Architect Antoine Predock achieved with the design, is a truly inclusive centre, where visitors can witness the amazing work achieved, to learn about the inner workings and ongoing efforts, and to consider the tremendous amount of work that is still ahead.
