The AACA Museum, Inc. would like to welcome everyone back. They hope that you had a chance to “keep up to speed” with the Museum through their Virtual Visits series, online Museum Bookshelf, and digital “Collection Chronicles” series.
Two new exhibits!
“Highlights of Our Collection”
The Museum is grateful to everyone who supported them during their prolonged COVID-19 closure. To show appreciation to their members, donors, contributors, volunteers, and community, they’re presenting an interim exhibit featuring unique and notable vehicles from the Museum collection. Throughout the closure, they introduced many cars from their collection through the “Collection Chronicles” email series. And, some of their notable vehicles appeared in their Virtual Visits presentations. Now it’s time to get up-close and see these cars in person. Among the highlights are their "Big Bad Orange" AMX, “Helen” their 1932 Studebaker, Betty White’s “Parakeet,” and the 1968 Chrysler Imperial featured in “ride” with Museum Curator Stan Sipko.
"A Salute to First Responders and Frontline Workers"
To show appreciation for those working on the frontlines during the COVID-19 national emergency, the reopening features their “Salute to First Responders and Frontline Workers” exhibit. Whether health care heroes, those providing essential services, or those pledged to “protect and serve,” the Museum thanks you for helping throughout the COVID-19 crisis. The exhibit includes vintage vehicles used to help in times of crisis.
