Might not have the name of this musuem correct, however, I'm sure you get the picture! Not always easy to figure out a place to visit in DC that will prove interesting to all. One of the suggestions was the American Indian musuem so we decided to give it a try. The building was beautiful; inside was a display of women's outfits. Very beautiful decirated with beads, shark's teeth, etc. We were told that young men save the teeth from the sharks they have killed; when they decide to get married the future bride sews the teeth on her dress. Could look bad if he doesn't get enough. Also watched a native of Guatemla weave some of her stories. Very interesting and the finished product was beautiful.
