Upcoming Exhibition
Americana
Opening this summer as the nation marks its 250th anniversary, Americana examines America as a brand. Through design, photography, textiles, sculpture, and art, it explores the images and archetypes that have come to define our national identity, and asks a timely question: are we living up to the promises we’ve made?

Famcom Test Exhibition: 2026
Live at The Branch showcases emerging and established artists in a living room style format that invites interaction between the audience and musical talent for an intimate night of dialogue and listening.
Music is built into the Branch Museum’s architecture. Housed in a 1919 Tudor Revival mansion designed by architect John Russell Pope, The Branch Museum is a design destination with a uniquely musical past. The Patsy Pettus Great Hall originally served as the Branch family's living room, and was acoustically engineered for live performances. It remains an ideal setting for intimate concerts that foster connection between artists and audiences.
