This building is a replica of a Revolutionary War fort originally located in New Windsor, New York. The original known as “The Temple” was where George Washington’s army spent the last winter of the Revolutionary War in 1783 and where Washington awarded the first three Purple Heart military decorations.
This Gallery hosts special traveling exhibitions at Heritage Museums & Gardens. Now open is Driving Our Dreams: Imagination in Motion.
April 13 – October 27, 2013
They are the cars upon which dreams are built – daring designs and unbridled concepts which were born as futuristic pathways to our automotive tomorrows. They are conjured up in the fertile minds of America’s most imaginative designers.
But what are concept cars? How did their introduction change the way cars were manufactured and marketed in the United States, how much of our motoring future do these unique harbingers in steel and fiberglass truly predict, and how has the creation of concept cars changed?
That’s the theme of a remarkable and revealing exhibit entitled Driving Our Dreams: Imagination in Motion planned for display at the Automobile Gallery and the Special Exhibitions Gallery at Heritage Museums & Gardens April through October of 2013.
The exhibition will feature an outstanding collection of some of the most historically significant concept cars ever built and examples of what today’s designers are dreaming up for tomorrow.
