Visitors are welcome to explore the collection at their own pace. Informational placards at each exhibit will inform and direct the self-guided tour. Light snacks are available for purchase in the gift shop. Beer and wine are also available for purchase at our beer and wine self-serve tap wall.
Children of all ages are welcome to visit the museum. There is plenty of room for strollers to navigate the show floor and our Kids Zone is available for children to explore and create in their own space. All visitors must refrain from touching the vehicles on the main show floor.

Free, self-parking accommodations are located on the north side of the building.
