In honor of America's 250th anniversary, the Museum is excited to announce a new exhibit, "Waltzing with the Queen: President Ford and the Anglo-American Special Relationship." When President Ford and Queen Elizabeth danced together in the East Room at the White House in July1976, the gesture symbolized the enduring bonds between the two nations.
"Waltzing with the Queen" will feature panels, photographs, artifacts such as Head of State gifts from Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip to President Ford and his family, the pen used by President John F. Kennedy to sign proclamation making Sir Winston Churchill an honorary U.S. citizen, the table gifted to President Eisenhower from Queen Elizabeth featuring detailed engraving of D-Day invasion and the gown worn by Queen Elizabeth to the State Dinner held in her honor!
