Testimonials

“For the ones that like history it’s really good. They even have interactive activities for kids. Very nice!” –Jennifer A.

“Delightful selection of artifacts and photos. Easy to navigate the exhibits. It can be rather chilly inside, so if you are like me and get cold easily bring a lightweight jacket. There is a parking garage a block away.” –Amy K.

Dimmy Herard – HistoryMiami Museum member since 2018 “The more I learn about the City of Miami by visiting HistoryMiami Museum, the more I can share this history with the students I teach. HistoryMiami Museums exhibitions bring the people of Miami together to reflect on what the city was in the past, what the city is currently, and what it may aspire to be in the future.”

Faith Mesnekoff, HistoryMiami Museum member for 45 years “Being a member of HistoryMiami has enabled me to meet so many people from all around our diverse cultural, business and professional communities, with whom I would not have otherwise had contact, and to learn about their lives, past and present.”

Angela Phang, HistoryMiami Museum member since 2018 “I think it is important to know the history of where you live. I will always support the museum and would not stop being a member. I even invited another friend to join the museum along with me. If you’re not going forward by learning something every day then you are going backwards. HistoryMiami Museum takes care of that learning.”
