The Umbrella Cover Museum is closed for the season. 30 years of sharing the celebration of the mundane. It was a phenomenal year. 10,000 people flooded the museum this summer alone. Umbrella covers reigned supreme. The cover song was played hundreds of times. People were thunderstruck by the variety and wonder of the exhibits. All because of you, our followers and fans. THANK YOU SO MUCH for a great year!
