Space Age Museum

Posted on February 4, 2008 Under Life

Admit it. Ever since you were a kid, you've harbored fantasies of blasting off into the great beyond of outer space. Heck, you still read science fiction novels and imagine yourself in the role of the heroic space adventurer fighting off would be planetary conquerors and seducing aliens of the opposite sex. Unfortunately, you're no real life James T. Kirk, but you're not alone in your desire to be one. John, Veronica and Peter Kleeman know just how you feel. They have a thing for all things astronomical too. That's why they founded the Space Age Museum. Over the past 20 years, the Kleemans have assembled quite the collection of familiar objects exhibiting a certain space aged spirit; whether it's a Rocket-finned Chevy or space aged cereal toy, you'd be sure to find it included in one of their exhibits of out of this world items. However, unlike most you won't find a gift shop, but you can change that. The Kleemans are searching for artists and designers to help create products for their future shop, so feel free to lend them a hand.
