THIRD SUNDAY OF EACH MONTH
Hours: 7:30am - 9:00am
Cars and Coffee is where beautiful vehicles and their fabulously owners come together to show off their collection and to share in their mutual interest. Along with this, spectators usually join in for the sights and sounds.
These car enthusiasts gather in the parking lot just outside the Museum for our monthly informal car meet, and welcome more than 100 cars – all years, makes, models, colors, styles, and customizations. It's completely free. We provide coffee and donuts.
The Museum opens early at 8:00am with a special admission price of $10 before 10:00am.
