The Changnon Family Museum of Toys and Collectibles showcases over 5,000 objects.
Toys
Our collection of toys documents objects such as dolls and figurines that children have loved and cherished throughout the years, but most importantly these objects showcase the impact they have made in today’s society.
Our inaugural toy exhibit, American Girl: 35 Years of Strong Characters, showcases Blake Changnon’s extensive American Girl collection and celebrates the toy company’s 35th anniversary of creating strong, courageous and heroic characters living and growing up in different times in America’s history.
Collectibles
Our assortment of collectibles documents everyday objects such as Christmas ornaments, decorative objects and books. These objects may not have been important back then, but over time have made a significant impact on society.
Our second exhibit (and the first to highlight our collectibles), Childhood Nostalgia: A Collection of Pleasant Company and American Girl Catalogues, showcases Blake Changnon’s extensive collection of catalogues from the renowned toy company.
