BREVARD COUNTY • CAPE CANAVERAL, FLORIDA – Space related memorabilia including unique and historic pins, patches, models, toys, postal covers, artwork and so much more from Space Coast collectors and entrepreneurs will be featured at a Space Collectibles Show & Sale on Saturday, Aug. 12.
The free event is open to the public and will take place between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Sands Space History Center located just outside the south gate of Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at the end of State Road 401 on the north side of Port Canaveral.
In addition to the space collectibles inside, several food trucks will be on hand outside to offer tasty food, drinks and treats to guests attending the event.
The U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Museum Foundation, Inc., a non-profit organization, is hosting the event.
The History Center provides a venue outside the restricted area of the Air Force Station for guests to explore the history of Cape Canaveral’s legendary launch pads. There is no charge for admission, making it one of the Space Coast’s most affordable attractions.
A gift shop operated by the Foundation is open inside. Proceeds from sales in the shop help the Foundation support the U.S. Air Force 45th Space Wing with its museum operations and volunteer docents.
For more information call 321-730-0055 or log on to CapeMuseum.org
