Thank you all for your generosity, and thank you to everyone who helped make this event possible. As time marches on, we look forward to continuing our “journey through yesterday” with you - today and every day!

"Amazing museum to visit with kids. ...It was like traveling in a time machine. I wish we could live nearby so I could visit there more often. If you are passing I-80, you must visit this place!"
