The United States government has terrific resources and programs for fun and learning. The Recreation and Culture Module highlights resources to aid in researching these activities and finding out about programs and events sponsored by governmental agencies.

Whether your interests lie in travel, outdoor adventure, gardening, art, history, or just armchair recreation, the federal government has many great websites for researching activities and finding out about interesting places to visit and things to see and do.
