The White House Historical Association is working on a new experience for tourists in Washington starting next fall.
FILE - The North Lawn of the White House is seen from a newly reopened section of Pennsylvania Avenue, July 4, 2021, in Washington. A White House tour is practically a must-do in Washington, though the experience can leave some guests asking questions about spaces they dont get to see, like the Oval Office. The White House Historical Association has a plan to answer those questions when it opens The Peoples House: A White House Experience, in the fall of 2024.
The center will feature a large cutaway model of the White House with rooms that, with the help of technology, can morph into the Green Room, the Blue Room or the Red Room. A full-scale replica of the Oval Office will reflect the incumbent president’s décor. A recreation of the Rose Garden will offer the experience of strolling through its blooms.
Plans for the The People’s House were revealed to donors attending the association’s premiere fundraising gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on Thursday. First ladypraised the project before the crowd at the private event., which was also attended by actors Michael Douglas and Martin Sheen. Both have played presidents on TV and film.
“I think that’s needed now more than ever, at a time when our institutions are increasingly under attack, and some of our leaders seem intent on burying our history,” Biden added.The association is privately funded so"people can come to our experience even if the government has to close for whatever situation arises,” he said.
