The Museum of Language Arts Incorporated
Planet Word is an interactive museum of words and language in downtown Washington, D.C. Planet Word will inspire and renew a love of words, language, and reading in people of all ages. Through unique, immersive learning experiences, we provide a space to explore words and language that is grounded in a solid understanding of language arts and science. At Planet Word, we strive to make the museum experience: fun, playful, unexpected, motivational, meaningful, inclusive. We explore how language is used, rather than dictate how it should be used. Linguists would call us a “descriptive” rather than a “prescriptive” museum. We won’t tell you what’s right and wrong. As a museum for the entire community, we’re collaborating with partners who share our core belief that literacy is the foundation of a strong democracy.
