Mera, Don and Jason Rubell אוספים אמנות עכשווית מאז 1964, ובשנת 2022 הביאו חלק מהאוסף לוושינגטון ופתחו חללי תצוגה בשטח של כ-3,000 מ"ר בשכונת Southwest. המוזיאון שוכן במבנה ששימש בעבר את Randall Junior High School – בית ספר ציבורי היסטורי לקהילה השחורה שנבנה ב-1906 ונסגר ב-1978. משפחת Rubell רכשה אותו מ-Corcoran Gallery of Art ב-2010 והפקידה את המלאכה בידי משרד האדריכלים Beyer Blinder Belle, שחשף את הכיתות עד ללבני הבניין המקוריות, לקורות הפלדה ולחלונות הגבוהים. הזמר Marvin Gaye למד כאן בעבר, ותערוכת הפתיחה של המוזיאון, What's Going On, שאבה ממנו את שמה. התצוגה במוזיאון מתחלפת כמעט במלואה מדי שנה, כך שהעבודות המוצגות על הקירות משתנות ללא הרף – והכניסה חופשית לבעלי תעודת תושב של DC.
