Now that the 4th of July has passed, we extend a warm Happy Halloween greeting to those celebrating the broader Spooky Season.

As our nation celebrates 250 years of American independence, we wish everyone a safe and joyful Fourth of July!

Please note that the museum will be closed on Saturday, July 4, so our staff can enjoy the holiday with their families and friends.
We'll reopen during our normal business hours on Tuesday July 7th. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Until then, have a wonderful Independence Day, and take a moment to celebrate the history, freedom, and spirit that have shaped our nation for the past 250 years.

Happy Fourth of July! 🎆🇺🇸

P.S. be careful with those fireworks. You'll need those fingers for model trains.
