The Museum community has a special opportunity to play a role in Solomon Victory Theater’s unique cinematic experience by naming seats in honor or in memory of a family member, personal friend, or organization. The National World War II Museum would like to thank the following donors for purchasing a theater seat thus far. An engraved plaque has been designed and permanently affixed to the arm of the purchased seat to recognize the contribution. Their support helps preserve the stories of World War II for future generations.
If you are interested in purchasing a theater seat please contact Carra Jane Williams at 504-528-1944 x 224 or carra.williams@nationalww2museum.org.
