  • The Strong National Museum of Play (aussi appelé The Strong Museum ou the Strong) fait partie de The Strong à Rochester, New York (Etats-Unis). Fondé en 1969 et initialement composé de la collection privée de Margaret Woodbury Strong, c'est en 1982 que le musée est ouvert au public, après des années de préparation, catalogage et développement d'exposition pour le nouveau bâtiment, situé au centre ville de Rochester. Pendant au moins 15 ans après son ouverture, la mission du musée est d'interpréter l'histoire culturelle et sociale américaine entre 1830 et 1940, sous la direction de H.J. Swinney et William T. Alderson. La collection de Margaret Woodbury Strong de poupées et jouets, d'Arts décoratifs américains et européens, de photographies, de peintures, artisanat japonais et de publicités, est alors complétée par des collections achetées et données. Le musée reçoit une importante publicité nationale et locale, ainsi que d'une aide financière de la National Endowment for the Humanities' Exhibitions and Public Programs division. Dans les années 90, le Conseil d'administration et le Directeur du musée modifie sa mission initiale, qui devient alors : collecter, conserver et interpréter l'histoire du jeu. Depuis, la collection du musée a été améliorée et enrichie, ainsi qu'agrandit à deux reprises (en 1997 et 2006). Le musée est à présent l'un des cinq Play Partners of The Strong, comprend également le National Toy Hall of Fame, le International Center for the History of Electronic Games et Brian Sutton-Smith Library and Archives of Play et est l'auteur du American Journal of Play.

Swinney and William T. Alderson. Mrs. Strong's collections of dolls and toys, American and European decorative arts, prints, paintings, Japanese crafts, and advertising ephemera provided a firm foundation for this mission, and were supplemented with collections purchased and donated to more fully support the museum's early mission. The museum received considerable local and national publicity and support and substantial financial support from the National Endowment for the Humanities' Exhibitions and Public Programs division. In the 1990s, the museum's Board of Trustees and director changed the museum's mission to collecting, preserving, and interpreting the history of play. Since then it has refined and increased its collections (hundreds of thousands of items), and expanded twice, in 1997 and 2006. The museum is now one of five Play Partners of The Strong, which is also home to the National Toy Hall of Fame, the International Center for the History of Electronic Games, and the Brian Sutton-Smith Library and Archives of Play, and produces the American Journal of Play.
