About the Exhibit
Our Story
With excitement and anticipation we bring to you the International Balloon Museum Foundation Inaugural Exhibition. The exhibition will celebrate the joy and inspiration of ballooning as depicted by artists around the world. In the creation of this exhibition we hope to achieve the goals set forth by the foundation to raise funds, foster public recognition, and promote membership for the Anderson-Abruzzo Albuquerque International Balloon Museum. In order to achieve these goals this exhibition will connect with the community on a local and international level.
