THE WHITE HOUSE VISITOR CENTER


In 1995, the National Park Service opened the White House Visitor Center. This facility, located two blocks east of the White House at 1450 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., provides a comfortable, accessible, indoor environment for viewing White House history exhibits and shopping at the association's gift shop.  Closest Metro stops are Federal Triangle (blue/orange line) and Metro Center (red line). Parking is not available at the site, but there are several parking garages available nearby.



 

Visitor Services: At the Visitor Center there are educational exhibits, an information desk, the White House Historical Association gift shop, restrooms, telephones, water fountains, and a First Aid area, all accessible. There are also special programs such as park ranger talks, military concerts, and special traveling exhibits. Be sure to ask a park ranger for most current information on these programs.

Hours of Operation: The Visitor Center is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Closed on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day & New Year's Day).
