With an attendance of around 65,000, the U.S. Marshals Museum has had a good inaugural year, according to Ben Johnson, museum president and CEO. He said attendance for the first year is “really great in the post-COVID world.”

Initial studies suggested the museum could average around 100,000 to 150,000 visitors annually.

“We didn’t really know what to expect. We hoped for higher numbers, but we’ve been very active. The traffic really has been awesome,” Johnson said, adding that he expects year No. 2 to be even better with a growing number of programs.
