History of the Smithsonian National Postal Museum
Mission:
Through the preservation and interpretation of our postal and philatelic collections, the Smithsonian National Postal Museum educates, challenges, and inspires its audiences on the breadth of American experiences.
Vision:
The National Postal Museum will become the world’s greatest philatelic resource and house the definitive collection of American postal history. We will prioritize the increase and diffusion of knowledge through our research, scholarship, exhibits and education, and lead the Smithsonian in becoming the most welcoming and accessible museum.
On Native Land
We gratefully acknowledge the Native Peoples on whose ancestral homelands we gather, as well as the diverse and vibrant Native communities who make their home here today.
