What

The George W. Bush Presidential Center will have a special exhibit exploring presidential retreats. The exhibit will highlight four featured retreats (Camp David in Frederick County, MD, Prairie Chapel Ranch in Crawford, TX, LBJ Ranch in Stonewall, TX, and Walker’s Point in Kennebunkport, ME), revealing how U.S. presidents have used these special places for work, rejuvenation, and rest. The exhibit will also explore other presidential retreats from the last two centuries, from Mount Vernon to Mar-a-Lago.

Visitors will learn about the specific initiatives, challenges, and accomplishments that made each retreat iconic, as well as the intimate family memories that endear these unique locations to their occupants.
