In December 1936, Andrew W. Mellon donated to the Nation, through President Franklin D. Roosevelt, his priceless art collection and a projected $8-9 million to build the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Since then the Museum has amassed a magnificent, world-class collection in its mission to serve the nation by welcoming all people to explore and experience art, creativity, and our shared humanity.
