Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch III, alongside other curators, is preparing the ‘American Aspirations’ exhibit while the Smithsonian Institution faces inquiries from federal sources. He emphasizes, “This is not a rebuttal,” in reference to the scrutiny.
The exhibit construction is part of preparations for the America 250 celebration, prominently featuring a new pavilion on the National Mall. This significant event positions the Smithsonian Castle as its backdrop.
In the vicinity of the Smithsonian Castle, construction teams are busily engaged, erecting a display reflecting former President Donald Trump’s interpretation of American history. This project, known as the Great American State Fair, promises a large-scale celebration matching the magnitude of a World’s Fair. It will span 16 days and include concerts, carnival rides, and exhibits representing different states. The central themes promoted through the event include ‘AMERICAN GREATNESS,’ ‘our heritage,’ ‘our flag,’ and ‘our glorious American freedom.’
