John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum


With Presidents Day just yesterday, we note the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is the only one of the 12 Presidential libraries administered by the National Parks Department to be located in New England. It is an impressive venue with stirring exhibits evocative of the administration of President Kennedy, and is a window on the era of his Presidency.

If you’ve never been there, it is a remarkable resource where multimedia exhibits recreate the early 1960s era of change, and drop you into a world you may have forgotten or never knew. Some exhibits, like the section of the Berlin Wall on display, illustrate the legacy of those years and of the Kennedy administration.

For more on the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, have a look at this website.

Been there? Done that? Still have your original Nash Rambler with the Kennedy/Johnson bumper sticker in your garage? Let us know.
