Explore JFK’s Legacy at the Sixth Floor Museum – Now Reopened Safely

After a brief closure, the Sixth Floor Museum is back in operation, welcoming visitors with comprehensive safety protocols and a socially distanced experience. The museum’s main exhibit showcases historic images, news footage, and artifacts that chronicle President John F. Kennedy’s life and the pivotal moments of his presidency.

Take advantage of the complimentary audio guide to deepen your understanding of each display. For a fresh perspective, ascend to the seventh floor and view Art Reframes History, a curated collection of ten artworks that reinterpret Kennedy’s legacy through contemporary artistic lenses.

No visit is complete without a memento. The Museum Bookstore offers books, apparel, and specialty gifts that capture the spirit of the 35th President. If you prefer to shop from home, the museum’s online store features the “History in a Box” gift set—an ideal holiday present for history enthusiasts.

The museum also hosts virtual events and public programming throughout the month. All details, including schedules and ticketing, can be found on the official website. The Sixth Floor Museum is open Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m. Online ticket purchase is required, and face coverings are mandatory for anyone over two years of age.

To enrich your JFK experience, consider visiting the nearby John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza for reflection or join a guided bus tour. Recommended providers include Best DFW Tours and Big D Fun Tours, both known for highlighting unique historical sites within the region.
