From the museum's website: "The Textile Museum is housed in two historic buildings in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington, DC. Visitors enter the Museum through the former home of the Museum's founding family which was designed by John Russell Pope in 1913. Since 1925, the Museum's galleries have been located in an adjacent building purchased by George Hewitt Myers for this purpose. Large gardens behind the buildings are open to the public during Museum hours."
