2010 Renovation
The Kentucky Derby Museum was devastated by flash flooding on August 4, 2009. and remained closed for recovery and cleanup. Every exhibit on the main floor of the Museum was affected in some way by water damage. Since the exhibits needed to be dismantled and many were destroyed, the Museum’s Board of Directors decided to embrace the opportunity for a renovation. The Museum re-opened on April 18, 2010, with two floors of new exhibits.
