It seems fitting that the stars of Documentary Now! would get an award from The Smithsonian.

The Smithsonian Institution has their own eponymous magazine that annual gives out awards in several categories, many which line up with a corresponding Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C.

Both Fred Armisen and Bill Hader will be receiving the honor of the American Ingenuity Award for Documentary Now!, which is definitely one of the most innovative, high concept shows to come around in some time. 

Hopefully, Armisen and Hader will attend and do some sort of Documentary Now! bit.
