Those who are not members of Heritage can take advantage of a discounted rate by combining this program with admission to all of Heritage for a savings of $8 for adults and $5 for youth! Members always enjoy free Main Season admission.\nFeatured Vehicles:\nCelebrate Motorsports Awareness Month this August by learning more about three remarkable early American sports cars in Heritage’s collection: the 1912 Mercer Raceabout, 1912 Oldsmobile Autocrat Roadster, and 1915 Stutz Bearcat. These vehicles are classic raceabouts, road cars designed to be driven on everyday roads but built with the speed and performance to compete in races. It is truly special to have all three of these early American sports cars represented in Heritage’s collection. This program will be the only opportunity this season to see the 1912 Oldsmobile Autocrat Roadster and the 1915 Stutz Bearcat, as both vehicles will be off exhibit in auto collection storage.\nThis program takes place rain or shine. In the event of inclement weather, the program will take place indoors inside the J.K. Lilly III Automobile Gallery. A limited number of tickets are available, so advance registration is highly recommended.\nLocation: Check in at the Ticket Pavillion\n$15 Members, $5 Youth Member/Non-Members $20 Adults, $10 Youth or $38/$21 with admission\nProgram fees fund Heritage’s mission to inspire people of all ages to explore, discover, and learn together.
