The Center is the living memorial of the United States of America to
the nation's twenty-eighth president, Woodrow Wilson. The Congress
established the Woodrow Wilson Center in 1968 as an international
institute for advanced study, "symbolizing and strengthening the
fruitful relationship between the world of learning and the world of
public affairs." The Center opened in 1970 under its own board of
trustees.
In all its activities, the Woodrow Wilson Center is a nonprofit,
nonpartisan organization, supported financially by annual
appropriations from the Congress and by the contributions of
foundations, corporations, and individuals.
