HistoryMiami Museum
Founded as the Historical Museum of Southern Florida in 1940, HistoryMiami is the second oldest cultural institution in South Florida, and is a Smithsonian affiliate. It was accredited by the American Alliance of Museums in 1979.
The Society opened its first museum in 1962. After moving twice, the museum has been located in the Miami-Dade Cultural Center since 1984. The Society and Museum were renamed in HistoryMiami in 2010.[1] In 2014 the museum more than doubled its space when took over the space formerly occupied by the Miami Art Museum in the cultural center.[2] The museum operates a non-circulating library, conducts city tours, and has educated more than 500,000 students in the area's rich history.
