Alexandria History Museum at the Lyceum

As we begin the celebration of America’s 250th, join us to learn the remarkable stories behind some of our nation’s iconic diplomatic properties and the stunning museum-quality collections they house––from America’s first acquisition over 200 years ago, in Tangier, to our ambassadorial residence in Paris, an exquisite hôtel particulier built on the foundations of a mansion designed by the American baroness who gave New Orleans' Jackson Square its style. Discover how these active diplomatic landmarks are stewarded for the future and why they are important to preserve.
Andrea Cochrane Tracey, a native of Alexandria (Fairfax County), has over thirty years of diverse professional experience in nonprofit management, museums, fundraising, and historic preservation in New England and the Mid-Atlantic.
