National Corvette Museum Announces 2024 Exhibit and Event Schedule

The National Corvette Museum has announced big plans to celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2024, including a special art exhibit, the opening of a new Vintage Shop online, the 27th Bash, a special look back at the sinkhole, the 2024 National Corvette Caravan, and more.

“The Corvette means so much to so many people, and our 2024 Exhibits and Events plans include something for everyone,” says Sharon Brawner, National Corvette Museum President and CEO. “From 8,000 Corvette enthusiasts traveling from all points across the country with the Corvette Caravan, to art aficionados captivated by the beauty and color so unique to cars and motorcycles, 2024 will deliver the sights, sounds, and experiences worthy of the Museum’s 30th Anniversary.”

Beginning March 15 and running through the end of the year, “Luster: Realism and Hyperrealism in Contemporary Automobile and Motorcycle Painting” will display more than 55 paintings by several of today’s realists and hyperrealists whose favorite subjects are cars and motorcycles. Art will be juxtaposed against Corvettes, motorcycles and other automotive icons that served as the inspiration for the work, including a 1937 Cord 812 on loan from the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum in Auburn, Indiana.

Beginning in April, the Vintage Shop will make limited “product drops” of vintage apparel for sale on the recently renovated CorvetteStore.com. In fact, the store is seeking donations of all types of Corvette merchandise, including T-shirts, totes, lapel pins, and more, that is clean, odorless, and in good condition.

Believe it or not, February 2024 will mark the 10th anniversary of the sinkhole that swallowed several key Corvettes that were on display in the Skydome. To mark the occasion, in June, “Ground to Sky: The Sinkhole Reimagined” opens as a limited engagement exhibit that includes select cars recovered from the sinkhole and more about the past, present, and future of the NCM.

The 2024 National Corvette Caravan, held every five years with regional caravans forming across the United States to meet in Bowling Green, arrives August 29-31, 2024, with four days of festivities planned, including the 26th Annual Corvette Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony on August 31.

The year will close out in October with a refreshing of the popular “An American Love Affair: Pop Culture and the Corvette” exhibit that will include a new multimedia performance in the Skydome.

All in all, it’s never been a more exciting time to be a Corvette enthusiast. Why not schedule a trip to the National Corvette Museum to celebrate in 2024?
