June 21:   SELL THE COOKSTOVE....YOU MUST SEE THE FAIR!    Join us at 6pm for the opening of our new exhibit featuring the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.  A performance at 7pm by RJ Lindsey as Daniel Burnham, architect of the World's Fair and subject of the runaway best seller, The Devil in the White City (a movie next year with Leonardo DiCaprio!)

Admission will be $10; members $5 discount (Silver, Gold and Platinum members free!)


The museum is planning to build a Restoration Hangar this spring in conjunction with Poplar Grove Airport's EAA Chapter 1414. This hangar will enable the Museum's Restoration team to have adequate room to work on a couple of projects at a time AND to store an actual flying aircraft to help promote the Museum and its programs. It will also free up space in the Springfield Hangar so it can be used for automobile restoration, and give us more desperately needed storage space.
