About the Archives Experience

In March of 2020, the National Archives Museum closed its doors to the public after the outbreak of a once in a century global pandemic. Amidst the uncertainty, the Foundation quickly adapted to answer the call of how to continue connecting our followers to the American Story, even while apart. That’s how the American Experience newsletter was born. In May 2022, we renamed our newsletter to the Archives Experience.

Every Tuesday, we bring the holdings of the National Archives straight to your inbox. Each newsletter is specifically curated through a weekly theme, with a focus on surfacing untold stories of history and highlighting the unknown resources of the Archives. Weekly historical themes are often chosen to reflect relatable, current-day events.

So whether you are passing time in transit, preparing your History Day project, doing family history research, or just craving knowledge, we welcome you to our shared American experience.
