times past while promoting education, history and the legacy of a family
that produced greatness, The Hughes Family.
Exhibitions, Educator Guided Lectures are the
mainstay of the facility. Fee schedule is based upon the length of time the
contracting agent wants to display the artifacts. Special preference is
extended to educational institutions. All lectures are provided by the

Since this is a new organization,
the first annual report was prepared for board members in January 2009. We
are looking to produce a newsletter in the future.
