Five years ago, on May 12, 2019, The International Spy Museum moved from its original location to its current home at 700 L’Enfant Plaza. This more than doubled our exhibit space and established a comprehensive home for our educational work. As a 501(c)3, the Museum is identified as an institution that operates in the public trust, dedicated to ensuring the widest possible access to our content and programs. This means that we rely on donations to accomplish our mission. Every contribution makes a meaningful difference in our ability to fulfill our mission and positively impact our SPY community.
Your support will help us preserve and care for our extensive collection of artifacts. From rare spy gadgets and equipment to historical documents and memorabilia, the museum's collection represents a valuable resource for researchers, historians, and enthusiasts interested in the history of espionage. By conserving these artifacts, we ensure that they are ready to inspire and enlighten future generations.
Your support will also help us provide learning opportunities and access to the museum for a wide range of audiences. The Museum’s free podcasts, programs, and lectures promote awareness of the significant role that espionage plays in global affairs. Diving deeper into SPY history is an important step to deeper understanding about contemporary issues related to security, privacy, and the international stage.
From all of us here at SPY, thank you for being a valued part of our journey. With your help, we’re excited for what the next five years will bring!
