After being closed for six months, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History is reopening to the public on Friday, May 21. The museum will be open between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Fridays through Tuesdays and requires free, timed-entry passes and face masks for all guests ages 2 and older.

The museum is displaying new acquisitions, including the blue gown from Crazy Rich Asians and a Bob Ross painting.

In the past, the art world dismissed the adage-spouting artist and late Joy of Painting host’s work as kitschy — but as Bob Ross exhibits pop up in places like his Indiana studio, Northern Virginia, and the DePaul Art Museum in Chicago, he has started gaining more acclaim among critics.

Ross painted more than 1,000 landscapes on his show alone, not including the thousands of paintings he made during workshops and charity events. And in 2019, Bob Ross Inc. donated four paintings and other memorabilia to the Smithsonian. The institution even hosted a painting workshop with certified Bob Ross instructors last year.

The NMAH has three versions of the painting “On a Clear Day,” one of which will be displayed when the museum reopens on Friday. Ross’ signature easel, palette knife, and the brushes he famously used to “beat the devil out of it” will also be on display.

The museum will also display a gown worn by Constance Wu’s character, Rachel Chu, in a wedding scene from the 2018 rom-com Crazy Rich Asians, the first movie with an all-Asian cast and an Asian American lead in 25 years.

Smithsonian Magazine’s Meilan Solly wrote in 2019, when the acquisition was announced, that the light blue gown was “set to join the ranks of such pop culture treasures as Judy Garland’s ruby slippers, a Kermit the Frog puppet and original cartoons by Peanuts creator Charles Schultz.”

The dress was originally slated for couture house Marchesa’s fall 2016 collection and was lent to the filmmakers for four weeks.

In the wake of the movie’s success, a blogger and fan recreated the dress for her daughter Olivia, a girl of Vietnamese and Thai descent, and dedicated a post to it.

“This is the first time I’ve made a costume where it gave me the chills; seeing her see herself in someone who looks like her. Someone who’s a strong woman. Someone living her dreams,” she wrote. “It’s like seeing the future.”
