LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL! Step back in time and imagine the iconic year of 1966, where the Ford Mustang was more than just a car ā€“ it was a symbol of a vibrant and dynamic lifestyle! šŸŒŸ Remember the soundtrack of that era? From the Beatles to the Rolling Stones, the music was as bold and rebellious as the Mustang itself. DID YOU KNOW they sold 1 million Ford Mustangs in only 18 months? It was Fordā€™s most successful product launch since the introduction of the Model ā€œAā€ in 1928.

This beautiful Mustang was donated to the Elliott Museum in 2013 in honor of Nicholas Cuneo. Take a look at the rest of our Auto Collection and consider ADOPTING A CAR, MOTORCYCLE OR BICYCLE! bit.ly/AdoptACar

The Elliott Museum added a local artifact to our collection in 1922. This ā€œCurtis 1ā€ is a replica of a 15-foot flat-bottom dingy designed and built by a very young Curtis Whiticar in the early 1920s. About twenty or so years ago, Steve Hero, a fan of the legendary boat builder, asked Curtis to build a replica of his very first boat. And, at a young 88, Curt jumped at the chance. Not only do we have the "Curtis 1" on display, but also his paintings! We are pleased to announce, Curt's daughter, Laura Kay Whiticar, will present a Gallery Walk through time as she recollects time and history behind Curt's paintings.
