Unveiling The Fed Experience

Jeffrey Lacker

Speech from Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond

Abstract: Thank you, Tammy. And thank you all for coming out for this special media sneak preview of our new educational exhibit. We are very excited about unveiling our exhibit today, because we've put a lot of time and thought into it. We're very happy you could join us, because we hope you can help carry the word to many Americans about what The Fed Experience is all about. I'll say a few words in a minute about the thinking behind our new exhibit, but let me underscore something at the outset that this exhibit signifies, so it doesn't get overlooked. This is Main Street; not Wall Street; not Capitol Hill. For those of you who may not have had your second cup of coffee yet, let me rephrase it — we are standing in the lobby of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, located in the central business district of an average American city — the proverbial Main Street, America, if you will. What I want to emphasize is that we, and our sister Federal Reserve Banks across the country, are the Fed's connection to Main Street and the American people.
