Like you, we are keeping a close eye on the quickly changing landscape of how to best prioritize health and safety, both for ourselves and for our community. Our first concern is the health and well-being of you, our museum and foundation staff​, ​and our volunteers. Even though the museum is currently closed to the public, museum and foundation staff continue to work diligently behind the scenes to provide you with online content and programming.

We care about every one of you and appreciate your ongoing support, which is why we are providing you all with three months free when you renew your membership with us, or sign up to become a member today!
