The opening as it read in 2025
America's Islamic Heritage Museum is a history museum located in Washington, DC, United States. It is a non-profit organization that displays a variety of Islamic artifacts, photographs, and stories dating from the 16th century up to the 21st century. Before it was a museum, it was a traveling exhibit called Collections and Stories of American Muslims (CSAM). Later, the traveling exhibit turned into a museum that was established on April 30, 2011. In 2024, the history museum introduced its grand reopening in a new constructed, mixed-use space at the ground floor, sharing it with a housing unit and other rental spaces.
