Happy Centennial, Valentine's Day and Love of Reading Month!


There's lots to feel warm and fuzzy about at the museum this month. Our first annual fundraising gala, Vegrandis, took place on Friday, January 27, 2012. It was a wonderful evening. Be sure to check out some photos in the album on our Facebook page!

A new exhibit opened on January 31, 2012 and will run through April 15, 2012. Shaping Arizona Statehood: The George Stuart Historical Figures of the Movement West, showcases 14 Historical Figures created by California artist George Stuart that depict characters central to Arizona becoming a state in 1912.

Come by the museum to see the new exhibit on Saturday, February 11, 2012 and say Happy Centennial with free punch and cookies from 1pm-4pm.

There are many reasons why a membership to The Mini Time Machine is a great idea, admission for two adults and two children would cost $30 for one visit. However, family membership at only $60 gives free admission for one full year and includes four free guest passes (it pays for itself right there)! Plus, you get a free calendar and mini calendar when you join. We have loads of fun programming coming up such as May Day, a new mini exhibit, Summer Camp and more! And now, in honor of love of reading month, receive a free children's book (while supplies last) when you purchase a family membership!

We hope to see you here!
 February is Love of Reading Month!
