Kentucky Derby Museum Flood
The Kentucky Derby Museum was devastated by flash flooding on August 4th of this year and has remained closed during the recovery and cleanup. Every exhibit on the main floor of the museum was affected in some way by water damage. Since the exhibits needed to be dismantled and many were destroyed, the museum’s Board of Directors decided to embrace the opportunity for a renovation.
