Named after its primary benefactor, the William H. Gross Stamp Gallery is the world’s largest gallery dedicated to philately. It provides an experience available nowhere else and offers something for everyone, from casual visitors to experienced collectors. As visitors move through six thematic areas, stunning displays and interactive moments reveal the amazing stories that unfold from the museum’s unparalleled collection. Distributed throughout the thematic areas are hundreds of pullout frames containing more than 20,000 objects, providing ample opportunities to view noteworthy stamps that have never been on public display.
And beyond just an amazing stamp collection, the museum features several other exhibitions including Systems at work: You drop a letter in a mailbox and then what happens? or Behind the Badge: Explores the mission and duty of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the law enforcement arm of the Postal Service.
We'll meet at noon just inside the main entrance (on the corner of First Street and Massachusetts Avenue NE). Around 1:30, after viewing the exhibits, we'll gather back at this spot to head across the street for lunch in Union Station's Food Court, with multiple options. Metro: Union Station.
Event Host: Corrine. Repeat attendees will be invited to host a future event.
