Annual Giving Campaign

As we proudly celebrate our 35th anniversary on November 5th, we take this moment to reflect on the remarkable journey we have shared with supporters like you. This milestone would not have been possible without your unwavering commitment and generosity. Since our opening in 1989, contributions from our community and car enthusiasts around the globe have transformed our vision into reality.

We are honored to consistently rank as the #1 “Thing to Do in Reno” and to be recognized nationally and internationally as one of the country’s Top Ten automobile Museums. Our Museum features many one-of-a-kind vehicles that showcase the rich history of automotive innovation.

While the day-to-day operations of a 35-year-old facility continue to present challenges, we are excited to announce accomplishments such as the recent opening of our new children's activity center. This achievement made possible through generous grants from the E.L. Wiegand Foundation, Museum Board members, and dedicated community supporters, reflects our ongoing commitment to education and engagement.

As we look to the future, we invite you to play an integral role in our continued success by contributing to our Annual Giving Campaign. Your support is crucial as we work to preserve this beloved local asset and maintain the high standards that define our Museum. Please consider pledging your support at whatever level you can afford.

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!
