Curious about the origins of America's economic woes? The Museum of American Finance has mounted an exhibit dedicated to the subject, and it's attracting more and more people who want to know what went wrong.
An exhibition dedicated to America's financial mess
Wall Street may not seem like the ideal tourist destination as the financial capital of the world weathers a recession. But there's one place visitors are flocking to the Museum of American Finance. An exhibit called "Tracking the Credit Crisis," that explains the events leading up to America's financial mess.
Exhibition lead up to current situation of America
Since the exhibit opened, museum attendance is up 45%. In addition to the time line, videos explain the lead-up to the current situation, and draw parallels with another defining moment in American financial history, the Great Depression.
The events to fill out the recession
It normally takes about a year to mount an exhibit, but there was such high demand for this one that museum staff put it together in a few months. The content will continue to evolve, with current events filling out the time line until the recession itself is history.
