Visited from San Francisco for the first time to help with a Khmer dance performance - was amazed that this is the only museum dedicated to our history in the US! And it's been here since 2004!...

The National Cambodian Heritage Museum and Killing Fields Memorial in Chicago serves as a tribute to Cambodia's rich heritage, which spans over 4,000 years. The museum provides a permanent home for Cambodian culture, preserving its history and achievements that were nearly lost during the Vietnam War and Cambodia's civil unrest.
Through a combination of permanent and temporary exhibitions, the museum educates visitors about both ancient and modern Cambodian history, including the refugee experience and the current Cambodian American community. It also offers programs for all ages, including traditional dance and music classes, Khmer language instruction, and initiatives aimed at supporting the aging refugee population and youth in the community.
