I am the Tata Nano!

Unveiled last year in India by Tata Motors, India's largest automobile manufacturer, the Tata Nano is targeted to families who had not previously been able to afford a car. Billed as "the people's car," the base model starts at $2,200 in India and can accommodate up to five adults. A bright, sunshine yellow Nano will be on display in Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum's Great Hall from February 18 to April 25, along with diagrams and a short film describing its concept, development and production.

More than 137 million objects have been entrusted into the Smithsonian's care. Our curators are experts in the conservation and study of artifacts that preserve our historical record.

But the Smithsonian cannot preserve these often fragile objects and the stories they tell for future generations without your help. We rely on donations from people like you to enable the Institution to:

** purchase conservation materials and supplies,

** hire expert curators and scientists,

** properly store objects when they are not on view; and

** share our collections with millions of visitors each year.
