Museum of Ancient Wonders:
To educate a diverse audience about the history of ancient civilizations and prehistoric life using fossils and artifacts from a variety of cultures and time periods.
LGBTQ+ World History Museum:
To chronicle 10,000 years of LGBTQ+ history in a global chronology, highlighting influential figures and their societal impact, fostering understanding and acceptance through shared experiences celebrating human diversity.
The Museum of Ancient Wonders, “MoAW,” founded in 2019, is proud to establish the LGBTQ+ World History Museum, “LGBTQ+WHM,” the only museum in the United States displaying the history of the LGBTQ community in an unprecedented global timeline, from 10,000 years ago to the present. We anticipate opening the LGBTQ+ World History Museum in 2025.
We are seeking a larger facility that will enable MoAW to display its large inventory of exhibitions all at once, establish the LGBTQ+ World History Museum, host traveling exhibits, present speakers, music, theater and other programs. MoAW and the LGBTQ+WHM will become a landmark cultural campus that enriches the community, educates the public on ancient civilizations, and prehistoric life, empowering individuals to embrace cultural diversity and speak out against bigotry and prejudice.
By supporting MoAW and the LGBTQ+WHM you play a vital role in ensuring the Museum’s continuing ability to present exhibitions, classes, and programs of the highest caliber and grow, adding new programs and exhibitions. Your gift – no matter the size – is invaluable to the future of this institution, impacting the experience of all those who enjoy and learn here.
