On Saturday Dec 7th from 11AM to 1PM we will offer a free introductory workshop teaching the basics of how to make and refurbish a wooden propeller. Entrance to museum included upon completion of the workshop.
The Gilroy Center for the Arts is hosting a special exhibit “Honoring Our Veterans” from Nov 11th through November 30th. Wings of History board members Dan and Carol Livingston created the display for them. For more information see the Center for the Arts website.
We held our annual Open House on October 26th. Here’s a short YouTube video showing some scenes from the event.
Volunteers Larry and Mark have spent quite a bit of time recently sprucing up our library. Check it out.
Our “Flying Pig” play and rest area has recently been refurbished. It features a climbing dome, a kid safe aircraft cabin, slides and swings, playhouses and picnic tables.
The Wings of History Air Museum has recently received a donation from the estate of Naval Commander Robert Aumack
The donation included many models some of which will be for sale in the gift shop. These models are desk models, some of which are new in the box models, as well as recognition models, but all in very good condition that any serious collector would love to have. The models cover the period of late 1940’s to 1970’s. We invite you to visit our gift shop to check these out before they are sold out. Remember members get 10% off sales.
