Exciting News!

The AFCA Museum has now achieved IRS 501(c)3 non-profit stautus. This means that the museum is now able to accept tax deductible contributions!

Several fans and cash donations have already been received. We plan to use donations for such things as the creation of "rotating" theme and educational displays. This will promote the museum to a more dynamic, rather than static function. Since Vornado continues to donate utilities and maintenance, a much greater part of all donations goes directly to tangible items and displays.

Here are some pictures of part of the museum displays, taken at the 1997 grand opening.
