Our Vision

Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum is a force of curiosity and courage for kids of all ages to gain the confidence to take flight.

About Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum

More than 20 Years of Aerospace Innovation & Preservation

Dreams of flight have captured the imaginations of children and adults for centuries. The Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum was born of this imagination and enthusiasm for all things related to flight and exploration.

Since our founding we have focused on preserving the artifacts and telling the stories of the men & women who impacted our current day aviators, astronauts, engineers, and explorers. 

Our mission is to Inspire and Educate all generations, to Promote and Preserve Aerospace History, and to Honor the patriotic service of  those who have served our nation, both civilian and military.
