Ever wondered how US Currency is made? Join CEAd Jorge for a trip to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing! Note: New Departure Time! We'll leave the Vern on the 11:15 a.m. Vex to Reach the Bureau around noon.

 

The tour experience begins with an introductory film and continues with a real-time guided experience exploring currency production from an enclosed walkway suspended above the production floor.

 

 

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s mission is to develop and produce United States currency notes, trusted worldwide.  BEP’s vision is to set the world standard for banknotes and document security through excellence in manufacturing and innovation. The BEP prints billions of dollars – referred to as Federal Reserve notes – each year for delivery to the Federal Reserve System.  The Federal Reserve operates as the nation's central bank and serves to ensure that adequate amounts of currency and coin are in circulation.
