Air Force One Experience to Close Temporarily in Anticipation of Hurricane Jose

The Air Force One Experience, the remarkable exhibition that for the first time presents an exact recreation of the Flying White House, will be closed Tuesday, September 19th through Thursday, September 21st in anticipation of Hurricane Jose.
Those who have reserved tickets for those dates will have the opportunity to reschedule for future dates at www.airforceoneexperience.com. The exhibit will reopen at 10am on Friday, September 22nd.
“After an overwhelmingly successful opening weekend in which nearly 5,000 guests attended, we are sorry to have to close our doors temporarily, but it is in the best interest of securing and protecting the aircraft, the unique and important artifacts we have on display, and of course the safety of our guests,” said Ari Scharf, Chairman of the Board, The Children’s Democracy Project.
Created to inspire the next generation of leaders, the Air Force One Experience is focused on connecting children with the principles of American democracy through a relatable and exciting experience.
For the first time ever, students, adults and history buffs of all ages will be able to experience an important collection of non-partisan Presidential items in one exhibition. Once on site, visitors will be able to see and touch the Boeing 747, known as the plane that changed the world, and view this massive marvel of technology from every angle, from its tires, to its engines and more.
Located at Quonset State Airport, 150 Airport Street in North Kingstown, RI, the Air Force One Experience is slated for a limited-time preview through October 31st before it embarks on a nationwide journey allowing Americans from across the United States to learn more about this iconic form of Presidential travel. This is the only tour stop in New England. For more information, visit www.airforceoneexperience.com.
