Mission Statement

The Sixties Museum is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation. We are a charitable and educational institution, dedicated to preserving and displaying, what is perhaps the most unusual decade ever. We attempt to preserve and share an unbiased, non-political view of the art, music, literature, fashion, political and social changes that are associated with the Sixties. The Sixties, Museum, Inc. is dedicated to keeping those spirits alive and will provide general assistance to individuals and groups that also stand for these ideals.

Description

The Sixties Museum will feature exhibits, interactive displays and virtual trips back to key events from the 1960's. Covering approximately 1955 to 1975, the museum will examine the many events and changes that happened including the Cold War, Vietnam, JFK, Civil Rights, the Women's Movement and the many changes in art, literature, media and music.

The museum will also feature the Sixties Toy Museum, the Sixties Library and the Living Video Vietnam Memorial. We are working on a starting location and will eventually build a 200,000 square foot building that will be one of the most energy efficient in the world.
