The National Hip-Hop Museum opened “The Hip-Hop Shop”, their new flagship retail and event space, in January 2023. This 6,000 sq. ft. facility, located in the heart of Dupont/Adams Morgan, features the largest selection of Hip-Hop memorabilia on the East Coast including, vintage apparel, sneakers, toys, memorabilia, vinyl and art.
The space is also home to their newest dispensary location, “The Orbit Shop”. The museum’s dispensaries are the exclusive purveyors of Hip-Hop cannabis strains such as ONYX's "SLAM," The Sugarhill Gang's "Sugarhill Delight," DAS EFX's "Googley Goo," Grandmaster Caz's "Casanova Fly", and many other exclusive cannabis products.
“The Hip-Hop Shop” and “The Orbit Shop” are conveniently located at the corner of 18th and Florida, only two blocks from Dupont Circle, right next to long-standing neighborhood anchor restaurant Lauriol Plaza. This new location serves as the primary place where all aspects of the museum come together; events, inductions, cannabis, art, memorabilia and fun! A special induction ceremony and performance to officially launch the space is to be announced.
"Watching the museum grow from pop-up experiences, to induction ceremonies, to an art gallery, to a retail space and dispensary is truly a thing of wonder!" says Executive Director Master Gee, who has been at the helm of the museum for the last two years following his induction at its Grand Opening Ceremony in 2019.
