REFLECTIONS Extra – Atkins Light demonstration on the Today Show

Soon you’ll be seeing this same model, restored by Jim Striplin, at the NWAHC Museum in Bloomington, MN.

Visit our museum:

We have re-opened, following building flooding and rehabilitation! Museum hours for April 2025 will be Thursdays 11 am – 2 pm and Fridays 11 am – 5 pm. We anticipate adding additional days to the schedule as our volunteer base comes back on board – check here for the most current timetable! And consider joining our crew as a volunteer docent to help us continue to extend our open hours.

For 2025, we will be closed on the Fourth of July, October 11 (our MSP Aviation Collectibles Show day), Thanksgiving Day, and over the Christmas-New Year period.

Please see our photo guide for navigating the Crowne Plaza AiRE Hotel to reach our museum, located on the third floor.

For patrons with mobility concerns, access to the elevators to reach the 3rd floor so as to avoid stairs is controlled by the hotel’s front desk for guests’ and residents’ security. Museum staff are not able to operate the elevators. The hotel’s front desk telephone is (952) 854-9000 if Crowne Plaza staff are not on hand to assist.
