The Museum maintains an active schedule of events and exhibitions. The Hall of Fame Series brings inductees to small audiences for discussions about their lives, a period for questions from the audience and, often, live performances. In addition, lectures, films, panel discussions and performances are scheduled throughout the year. Several times a year the Museum mounts temporary exhibitions, including everything from block-buster shows to intimate photography displays.

All events are subject to change.
