About The Project
The National Museum of the American Indian, devoted to the culture of the indigenous peoples of the Americas, is part of the Smithsonian Institution group of museums and research centers. CCS executed a Facilities Master Plan for the museum on the National Mall in Washington, DC, and the Cultural Resources Center in Suitland, MD. NMAI has one of the most extensive collections of Native American art and artifacts in the world — more than 825,000 objects, representing over 12,000 years of history, from more than 1,200 indigenous cultures through the Western Hemisphere. The NMAI is embarking on its first master plan since opening its initial facilities and this project will result in a 20-year, 2-phase Master Plan for these locations.
