There’s no shortage of halls of fame in the U.S. There are at least 440 physical halls of fame that you can visit in North America. They span sports, entertainment, business and other endeavors.
Since last fall, new halls of fame have opened devoted to bobbleheads, mascots and bluegrass music.
The latest is the Utah Sports Hall of Fame Museum in Salt Lake City, Utah. It opened May 18. (See article by the Salt Lake Tribune.)
Up next is the Georgia Radio Museum and Hall of Fame. It is scheduled to open in LaGrange, Georgia, on July 12. (See article by the LaGrange Daily News.)
Other physical halls of fame are set to open soon.
The U.S. Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs, Colorado, is scheduled to open in spring 2020.
The National Sailing Hall of Fame is scheduled to open a museum in Newport, Rhode Island, in May 2020. The organization previously was headquartered in Annapolis, Maryland.
Also, the American Home Furnishings Hall of Fame Foundation announced July 1 that it has purchased a building in High Point, N.C. It will serve as a showcase for the home furnishings industry and will include exhibits and memorabilia.
