The Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum in Grand Rapids is celebrating the 2009 presidential year with two White House related exhibits. From January 23 through May 24, 2009, The White House in Miniature exhibit returns to Michigan following a visit to Washington, D.C. Visitors will enjoy a remarkable scale model of the White House that is 60 feet long and 20 feet wide. The replica took more than 35 years to research, design and construct. From June 19-August 31, museum guests can see more than 70 dolls and puppets from 30 countries, all a part of the exhibit, A Child in the White House - Caroline Kennedy’s Dolls, on loan from the John F. Kennedy Library.
