The Ingham is a National Historic Landmark, a museum, and a living classroom designed to inform and inspire generations to come. As a non-governmental, non-profit maritime museum, it is a repository of historical artifacts, a life-changing classroom for at-risk youth, and a powerful reminder of the U.S. Coast Guard's role in protecting America in times of peace and times of war. Rotating displays of artifacts like compasses, barometers, uniforms, photos, and memorabilia are exhibited in various cabins, staterooms, ward room, dining area, and other departments.
