Night at Mount Vernon May 23, 2009

Celebrate the opening of the movie 'Night at the Museum 2: Battle at the Smithsonian' by spending an evening at George Washington's home. Stroll the lantern-lit grounds and immerse yourself in the 18th century as the sun sets on the plantation. In the Donald W. Reynolds Education Center, people suddenly come out of displays just like in the movie - so keep an eye out for wandering exhibits. Meet these characters from Washington's world as they come to life during this special event.
