Activity Or MissionThe Museum functions as an educational and cultural institution exercising community responsibility for the preservation of the automotive arts and sciences.During Fiscal Year 2024, the San Diego Automotive Museum completed a significant facilities transition in support of its long-term educational and cultural mission. Following the sale of the Museums prior facility, the Museum acquired a larger replacement property intended to expand exhibition capacity, collections preservation, educational programming, community engagement activities, and other mission-related operations. The prior fiscal year included nonrecurring gains associated with the sale of the former property. Fiscal Year 2024 reflects the Museums reinvestment of those proceeds into long-term organizational infrastructure and expanded programmatic capacity.ActivityOrMissionDesc
