The American Swedish Historical Museum houses 12 distinct exhibition galleries that explore topics such as the New Sweden Colony, women’s history, Swedish immigration, scientific innovations, and Swedish craft arts.
Our featured exhibition, “From Taste to Tech: 100 Years of Nordic Innovation + Impact,” invites visitors to step into a world where Swedish meatballs meet pop music, where streamlined design and functional minimalism have redefined modern living, and where Nordic ingenuity has brought life-saving innovations like Google Maps and the three-point seatbelt. From Taste to Tech explores how Nordic craftspeople, artists, chefs, and thinkers brought their values and visions to American soil. Featuring a remarkable collection of artifacts, including World War II uniforms, original art by Gustaf Tenggren, and mid-century modern furniture.
