Trust for the National Mall Launches National Mall Gateway

In celebration of Constitution Day, the Trust for the National Mall is proud to announce the official launch of the National Mall Gateway. This one-of-a-kind digital and onsite learning platform is designed to connect students, educators, and the public to the history and the guiding principles represented by the National Mall, its landmarks, and the historic events that have shaped the United States. 

The National Mall Gateway transforms America's most iconic public space into its greatest living history and civics classroom. Developed by the Trust for the National Mall in partnership with the National Park Service and with support from visionary funders, led by HP, Inc., the National Mall Gateway is an enduring legacy project inspired by America’s historic 250th anniversary in 2026.

 A dynamic and interactive tool, this digital platform enables in-person and virtual exploration of the people, places, and principles that tell the story of American history.

“As we approach America’s 250th anniversary, the Gateway is a response to the growing demand for accessible and engaging civic education resources about the National Mall for 2026 and for generations to come,” said Catherine Townsend, President and CEO of Trust for the National Mall. “ The Gateway offers an unparalleled opportunity to help educators, students, and visitors deepen their connection to the National Mall and the story of America’s founding, inspiring a whole new group of informed citizens.”
