C.R. Smith Museum
The museum opened on July 3, 1993, and is dedicated to the history of American Airlines and commercial aviation.
In November 2016 the museum received a grant from The Boeing Company to extend its Flight Workshop Program to disadvantaged students in nearby Title 1 primary schools.
Mission statement

Through its activities, the museum serves active and retired American Airlines employees, the educational community and interested members of the general public. Because of the museum's commitment to education, its exhibits stress hands-on learning through hands-on displays. The museum collects artifacts and archival materials that are suitable for its educational and exhibit programs.
