MISSION
National Sports Museum celebrates sports' profound impact on our national identity and pays tribute to socially conscious athletes who use their platform as leaders to effect meaningful change.
FOCUS
While halls of fame focus on athletic achievement, NSM focuses on the stories relating to athletes' and sports' historical, social, and cultural contributions to make us a more inclusive, united nation.
EXPERIENCE
By creating an experiential attraction-museum, we will weave historical, social, and cultural themes to convey the narrative about sports and society in uniquely interactive and compelling ways.
GOAL
By 2030, our goal is to create a venue that leverages the power and contextual framework of sports to Advance, Empower, Inspire, and Unite Us as a Nation.
