The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, along with the National Aviation Hall of Fame, officially reopened to the public on July 1. While the museum is excited to reopen, our top priority is the health and safety of our visitors and our entire museum family. Therefore, we’ve carefully developed reopening guidelines following the recommendations of the Center for Disease Control, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the State of Ohio, local health experts and peer institutions across the country. This museum has been closed since mid-march due to COVID-19.
