The Museum is closed until April 18th, 2010.
On August 4th, 2009 the Museum received massive damage by flood waters. The flood destroyed many exhibits on the first floor and devastated the lower level offices, artifact storage areas and Museum archives. Visit our flood blog to read more about the flood. The Kentucky Derby Museum will re-open on Sunday, April 18, 2010 with new exhibits, more interactive experiences and a fresh mission of sharing the FUN of the Kentucky Derby experience.
