The Stamford Museum & Nature Center invites collectors of antique and classic cars to participate in its 7th Annual Model Ts to Mustangs show. This year’s Model Ts to Mustangs will take place on Saturday, May 1, from 11 am to 3 pm. The show will be co-curated by David Greenberg, of Stamford, and Rosa Portell, the Museum’s Curator of Collections.
The Museum seeks to display cars manufactured between 1900 and 1979. This year’s special section will focus on Buicks. Applications may be submitted at any time but no later than Tuesday, April 13, 2010. Admitted participants will be notified no later than Friday, April 16.
The show will be judged and awards will be presented in several categories. Survivor cars will be judged separately. Participants may decline to have their cars judged, if they so wish. A People’s Choice Award will also be presented. The awards ceremony will take place at approximately 2:45 p.m.
Proceeds from the Model Ts to Mustangs show benefit the Museum’s arts education and gallery initiatives. A $15 contribution per participant will be collected at the gate. Participant benefits include two free admissions to the entire facility and two lunch coupons.
