February 2008 - American Association of Museums (AAM) Accreditation
Park Museum Re-accredited by AAM Independence National Historical Park has been re-accredited by the American Association of Museums, the highest national recognition for a museum. Accreditation signifies excellence to the museum community, the government, funders, outside agencies, and the museum-going public.
The AAM is the only national organization that serves the entire scope of the museum community from art, history and science museums, to national parks, zoos, arboretums, and planetariums. Only 8 percent of AAM-accredited museums are historical sites like Independence. Of the nation’s nearly 17,500 museums, approximately 775 are currently accredited.
Independence National Historical Park is one of only nine accredited national park museums. For more information about AAM and the park's re-accreditation, view the AAM official website and read the press release.
