Annual Giving Campaign

Thirty-six years ago, on November 5, 1989, the National Automobile Museum opened its doors for the very first time. Today, as we celebrate this milestone, we extend our deepest gratitude to the friends, members, and supporters who have helped us preserve the remarkable story of the automobile.

Thanks to generous donors and collectors, our collection has grown from 175 to more than 240 historic automobiles. And with the completion of a transformative $4 million renovation, the Museum is better than ever. Highlights include upgraded galleries, expanded event spaces, a rotating exhibits gallery, and our award-winning Children’s Activity Center, which is inspiring more students and families than ever before.

But our work doesn’t end here. To continue offering dynamic exhibits, hands-on learning, and unforgettable experiences, we need your support.

Your contribution to our Annual Giving Campaign helps sustain our programs, protect our collection, and ensure the Museum remains a place where history, innovation, and imagination come alive. As we receive no federal or state funding, your generosity is essential to our mission.

Please consider giving generously—your tax-deductible gift will drive the next 36 years of learning, preservation, and inspiration.

Thank you for helping us keep history in motion.

As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, your gift is fully tax-deductible. You may also call the Museum at (775) 333-9300 to make your donation over the phone.

For 35 years, our friends, donors, members, Board of Trustees, staff, volunteers, and the collector car community have embraced the Museum. We cannot express enough gratitude for your generosity and support. Your contribution today is not just a donation; it is an investment in the next 35 years of our journey together.

Thank you for being a vital part of our Museum family.

We look forward to celebrating many more anniversaries with you!
