Candler Field Museum flies high!
Jessica Rossome, the Director of Operations for Mucklow’s Fine Jewelry (pictured left) is handing Christy Eberle from the Candler Field Museum a gift certificate for $500 for their Gala. This is our second year supporting this great organization.
The Candler Field Museum was established to recreate the old Atlanta airport as it existed in the 1920’s and 1930’s. The museum will consist of several buildings:
The American Airways Hangar – This building was completed in September, 2008 and is now open to the public. It is the first museum building to be built. Inside, the museum’s collection of airplanes, cars, clothing and other items relevant to the era are displayed. In addition :
The new Barnstormers Grill is also open with room enough for parties, banquets and corporate events.
The Candler Field Terminal – this building will retain the Art Deco look of the original terminal, yet function as a hotel and large banquet facility. This building will be built in the future.
The Doug Davis and Beeler Blevins Hangars – both of these two early, famous Atlanta aviators will have their hangars recreated to house museum artifacts. The Doug Davis hangar was completed in early 2015 and now is home for our Youth Education Program.
