On Thursday, September 10th, Peak Producers had the opportunity to tour the brand new United States Olympic & Paralympic Museum. The 60,000-square foot Museum is dedicated to U.S. Olympic and Paralympic athletes and their fascinating stories. It features 13 exhibits, full of artifacts, media, and technology. It is one of the most accessible and interactive museums in the world, designed for all guests to experience it in the same way.

The Museum focuses on the core values of the movements: friendship, respect and excellence; determination, equality, inspiration and courage. 

“The Museum’s mission is to honor the Olympic and Paralympic ideas; document and share the history of the United States’ Olympic and Paralympic participation; and, celebrate the achievements of U.S. Olympic and Paralympic competitors.

The Museum’s vision is to ignite, inspire and reinforce Olympic and Paralympic hopes and dreams – both today’s and future ones – through physical, digital, and virtual experiences that are engaging, relevant, and authentic for every visitor from nearby, across the nation, and around the world.

The Museum’s purpose is to help everyone find, fuel, and fulfill their own personal “Olympic-size” hopes and dreams – to be their best.” https://usopm.org/plan-your-visit/inside-the-museum/
