Elvis on the Mall?

By Mike Licht

Smithsonian A and I Museum - Home for Elvis?

Can Elvis Shake Up the Smithsonian?

The Smithsonian is looking for an outside group to help renovate and operate the Arts and Industries Building on the National Mall.

The famed “Elvis Is Alive” Museum of Wright City, Missouri is going out of business.

Let’s think about this a minute . . . . Has Elvis been left this building?

Thankyouverymuch.
