The Library and Museum makes available the records and artifacts of George H.W. Bush, 41st President of the United States. The core exhibit space tells the story of his life and times. In addition to an interactive tour of the museum, view replicas of his Camp David Office and the White House Press Room plus receive a briefing on the Gulf War in the Situation Room. You can even have your picture taken while seated at the desk in the replica Oval Office!! The Ansary Gallery of American History features temporary exhibits that rotate throughout the year.
The Pavillion is now open and houses Marine One, the retired helicopter. Weighing 9,300 pounds and stretching over 72 feet, Marine One stands as an iconic piece of presidential history. Also on exhibit is Union Pacific 4141 Locomotive. Painted to resemble Air Force One, this striking locomotive led President Bush's funeral train from Houston to his final resting place at the library.
The Bush Family Gravesite is a tranquil space behind the pond honoring and remembering the life of President George H.W. Bush; First Lady Barbara Bush; and their daughter, Pauline Robinson “Robin" Bush.

DIRECTIONS FROM GESSNER:
Turn on Barryknoll from Gessner. Go just a little way down, and right past Planation on your right, there is a triangular parking lot. That is where we will meet. It’s almost directly across Barryknoll from the Cinemark Theater in the mall. If you get to the apartments on your right, you’ve gone too far.
