POSTAL MUSEUM
We can’t wait to celebrate with you! For everyone’s safety and peace of mind, we require that all of our guests be fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID.
While we love our friends and family of all ages, due to the fragile nature of the museum, we’re unable to welcome children under the age of eight to our celebration. We’re happy to help find a local babysitter so our parent friends can enjoy a night out!
We are so looking forward to seeing you! Please RSVP HERE.
Accommodations
We invite you to stay in our room block at The Riggs Hotel! The Riggs is a short metro ride away from the Museum on the red line, which you can catch at the Gallery Place stop. The discounted room rate is available until May 14.
Anyone is welcome to book other accommodations instead. Our recommendations include the Kimpton George Hotel, or the Phoenix Park Hotel, both of which are within a block of the museum.
