Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center Non-profit sports education center and tribute to life and career of American icon Yogi Berra.
(1)

Since officially opening its doors on Dec. 4, 1998, with students and teachers from the Bradford Academy in Montclair being the first public visitors, the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center has become a hugely popular destination for sports fans and educators alike. It is also recognized as the New York metropolitan area’s premier sports education center. After an extensive renovation in 2011, it

has grown into the New York metropolitan area’s premier sports education center. The YBMLC is an engaging walk through the life and career of one of the most beloved sports figures of all time – as well as the most quoted American. From growing up in the Great Depression to his service during World War II to his legendary career as catcher of the Yankees’ dynasty from the late 1940s to early ’60s, Yogi Berra’s values and character have made him the great American success story. The Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center – which empowers students through year-round character-based programs – is a poignant reminder to young people that they, too, can be anything they want to be. Educational programs are created in collaboration with faculty from Montclair State University as well as professionals in the world of sports, business and the arts.

June 6, 1944, Seaman Second Class Lawrence P. Berra was manning a 36-foot rocketboat off the coast of Normandy. The Yes Network and our friend Bob Lorenz interviewed Yogi about his experience that day at the Museum, and Yogi remembered it all too well.

A rare look at one of our artifacts from the archives, and it’s currently on loan at the American Museum of Natural History! Yogi’s Babe Ruth Crown is part of their new exhibition For the Win: Objects of Sports Excellence. Located in their Hall of Gems and Minerals, this exhibition is included with admission, and is the first time his crown has been on display outside of our Museum. Check it out!
