Sports Museum of America
The Lacrosse Museum and National Hall of Fame is a Founding Sports Partner of the Sports Museum of America, joining more than 50 other single-sport Halls of Fame, National Governing Bodies, Museums and other organizations across North America to richly celebrate the history, grandeur and significance of sports in American culture. Set to open in New York City on May 7, 2008, the Sports Museum of America will showcase both the Lacrosse Museum and National Hall of Fame and US Lacrosse in its Hall of Halls Gallery (along with providing an annual donation) in return for sharing some of the museum's valuable lacrosse artifacts and their support of the creation of the Nation's first all-sports museum experience.
