Description:
The Ford Museum opened to the public in September 1981. It is part of the Presidential libraries system of the National Archives and Records Administration, a Federal agency. Unlike other Presidential libraries, the museum component is geographically separate from the library/archives. The Ford Museum is in Grand Rapids, Michigan and the Library is in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Despite the separation, the library and museum are a single institution sharing one director.

Educator Comments:
They are an excellent trip to take students to help them appreciate that part of history.

We used the Gerald R. Ford field trip and the kids seem to enjoy it. They had activities to do along with the speaker.
