We are excited to announce a bold new chapter for the National Electronics
Museum! Our new home will be the Maryland Aerospace Heritage
Center, joining forces in a strategic co-location with the Glenn L. Martin Maryland
Aviation Museum. Together, we are creating Maryland’s premier campus for
STEAM education and the history of defense and electronics.

As of Friday January 30th, 2026, we are closed for tours in our Hunt Valley location.

During the transition, our team is offering on-site workshops and outreach programs — ideal for schools, libraries, and community centers. Inquire via email at education@nemuseum.org for scheduling and pricing.

Our Mission is:

  • To promote and encourage the study of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics)
  • To collect, preserve, and exhibit artifacts and documentation related to the development of key electronics systems to motivate the next-generation STEAM workforce.
  • To inspire visitors with an appreciation of the evolution of historical, defense, and commercial electronics.

In 1980, the NEM vision began to preserve and display the history of electronic engineering and to inspire the next generation. Throughout the years, we continued to evolve, to refresh the collection with supplemental educational programs to bring the wonder of electronics and engineering to thousands of students and visitors. Let’s extend this legacy in our new location.

Help us build our future by supporting our mission, donating today, and ensure our legacy.

Thank you for your continued support of the National Electronics Museum!
