The importance of the Kansas Aviation Museum building to the glory days of Kansas aviation cannot be overstated. Its grand art-deco style appeals both to the aviation community and to anyone interested in historic preservation.
The Kansas Aviation Hall of Fame preserves the memory of extraordinary citizens of Kansas who have made contributions to aviation of statewide or national significance.
Dozens of talented, dedicated and highly skilled volunteers donate countless hours of their time restoring aircraft so they can take their place telling the story of Kansas aviation. Restoration projects range from the earliest production aircraft to the much revered Beechcraft Bonanza.
Our archives are a gold mine of aviation history for the United States and the world. We have original documents, photographs, negatives, drawings, periodicals and blueprints of many historic aircraft.
Where Dreams Take Flight
As part of the museum’s 35th anniversary celebration, we are proudly launching this education capital campaign, a transformative initiative to create a dynamic new Education Wing designed to ignite curiosity, creativity, and innovation in learners of all ages.
First Flight Hangar
Opening This Spring - Designed for children ages toddler to five, this early learning space introduces the wonder of aviation through imaginative, hands-on play.

Runway to Innovation Powered by Bombardier
Opening September 2026 - A cutting-edge, interactive zone where students can explore aviation through hands-on design and technology. Highlights include:
Launch Point Powered by the Roth Family Foundation
Opening 2027 - Serving as the heart of the Education Wing, this flexible classroom and lab space will host STEAM camps, field trips, and maker-based learning experiences, becoming KAM’s primary hub for educational programming.
Through this initiative, the Kansas Aviation Museum aims to create an inspiring environment where history meets innovation—fueling a passion for learning and opening doors to future careers in aviation and beyond.
The “Where Dreams Take Flight” campaign has already secured 65% of its fundraising goal, demonstrating strong early momentum and community investment.
