Youngsters and the young at heart will enjoy a day of special activities, food, and gallery tours at our 15th annual Family Day.
While uniformed re-enactors, demonstrations, and a barbeque lunch make the event enjoyable, the real draw is the unique opportunity to ride in one of the Wright Museum’s vintage WWII vehicles.
Visitors will also meet “Rosie the Riveter” and learn about the contributions of women on the home front.
