Hall of Fame to update exhibit space with Class of 2025 artifacts
While this transition is occurring, the exhibit space off the main lobby will be closed to guests.
Each year, the museum’s team designs and creates a space devoted to the current class, which this year is composed of ERIC ALLEN,(Opens in a new window) JARED ALLEN,(Opens in a new window) ANTONIO GATES(Opens in a new window) and STERLING SHARPE.(Opens in a new window) Included in the exhibit are display cases dedicated to each class member. Each new Hall of Famer provided the items for his individual case, and these displays provide insight into his journey to Canton.
Additionally, the exhibit space is adorned with numerous graphics, providing an illustrative presentation of the trek the new class and previous classes have traversed prior to enshrinement.
Members of the new class will experience the exhibit for the first time during the upcoming AEP Ohio Foundation Hall of Fame Ribs Burnoff presented by Minutemen Workforce Solutions(Opens in a new window), May 23-25.
