The Heurich House Museum honors the legacies of the craftspeople who built it while supporting modern-day artists from historically underrepresented groups. A dynamic local history museum in Dupont Circle, it welcomes residents through public tours, exhibits, and programs about DC history, where visitors learn about the women, household staff, and immigrant brewery workers who contributed to the Heurich family’s successes. Its biergarten serves as a gathering place for thousands annually in a city with few “third spaces.” Each year, through its Urban Manufacturing Incubator Program, over 300 local artisans, craftspeople, and small-scale manufacturers gain access to on-site studio space, education, partnerships, and digital and physical retail platforms. Operating as a traditional house museum in service to its community, Heurich House preserves local history, engages residents with people-driven programming, and stimulates economic opportunities for local makers.
