John F Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum The Tribute To A Great Leader

Located on Columbia Point near Boston, Massachusetts, USA, the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is dedicated to John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president f the United States. After serving in the military as a commander of a couple of motor torpedo boats, during World War II, Kennedy went on to represent the 11th congressional district of Massachusetts as a Democrat and thereafter to serve in the U.S Senate. In 1960, he won the U.S presidential election becoming the youngest president to be elected to the office. A number of significant events took place during his presidency such as the Cuban Missile Crisis, bay of Pigs Invasion, and the African American Civil Rights Movement. Unfortunately he was assassinated in 1963 and is now commemorated at the John F Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum.

Designed by the famous architect I.M. Pei, the edifice is the official repository for the 35th president's Administration's correspondence and original papers. Some of the permanent exhibits at the museum include the Campaign Trail; which invites the visitors to relive one of the most energetic and exciting presidential campaigns of the past, an exhibit related to the Space Programme and the Oval Office which has been the office of presidents since 1909.

Special exhibits at the venue include a significant 50th anniversary exhibit named 'Passing the Torch ', presenting treasures from the ceremonial events building up to the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy. The exhibit 'Poetry and Power' displays documents from his Presidential Library Archives that indicate the evolution of the inaugural address of the President. Most of the drafts and notes of the exhibit present fascinating glimpses into the process of drafting.

The museum collection of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum encompasses some 20,000 works of art and three-dimensional objects, including many features of distinct value and historical significance. Among the collection are whimsical and charming handmade items and gifts presented to the president by some world leaders. The collection also includes the president's personal memorabilia such as his own collection of ship models and scrimshaw. The museum's holdings also comprise a comprehensive assortment of the costumes of Jacqueline Kennedy which is testament to the special public role she played while accomplishing the substantive work as the First Lady.
