Frequently Asked Questions

Is the museum open weekends?

Yes, the museum is open to the public on Saturdays that we aren’t hosting a private event. Please review our calendar for closure dates.
 

Why is the museum sometimes closed during the week?

We are a private event venue as well as a museum and sometimes those events are held during the week. We know this can be frustrating to our museum visitors, but as a non-profit raising funds for local at-risk children’s charities, these events help us to raise said funds.

No, Dick and John Marconi donated the building and the entire collection to form the Marconi Foundation for Kids®, a 501(c)(3) non-profit.

Not usually. We have been very fortunate to have several cars donated by private owners.
