WASHINGTON — There's some good news for museum lovers in D.C.! The Smithsonian Institution announced it will reopen three of its museums that have been closed during the coronavirus pandemic.

The National Air and Space Museum on the National Mall reopened on Friday, March 11. However, it's a bit of a tease as the museum will close again on March 27 to undergo renovations, and will be closed through the fall. The museum will be open Thursday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

That's not the only Smithsonian museum reopening in March. 

The Anacostia Community Museum reopened Thursday, March 10, and will stay open Wednesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The National Postal Museum also reopened Friday. It will be open Friday through Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
