Reviews of AFCA Antique Fan Museum (Museum)

Sarah Ray

We took our 4 year old son for his birthday and he loved it. He loves fan and enjoyed every minute of it. He was even happy to donate a few dollars. My nieces who are 9 and 12 had fun also! It was actually amazing to see all these old fans and see how far they have come! They even have really unique ones. We will definitely go back.

My son loves this place. The staff is so nice and accommodating every time we've been there. We usually stop in every couple months for a 1/2 hour or a little longer so my son can enjoy all the fans. He's a fan of fans!

Our tour guide Stephanie Rogers reeked of Patron and dust . She was very rude and appeared to have just rolled out of the bed after a long night of binge drinking. All of the ceiling fans apparently have not been cleaned since 1998. A swifter, an an intervention would make this place more family friendly .

Really good museum of old fans. Our son loved it. Sorry fo the lack of puns, it deserves to have more.

The museum was much larger than we expected and many of the ceiling fans are wired. Our son loved going up and down the aisles and trying out all of the remotes. One of the owners showed us around and the lady working the front desk is really friendly. The trip was definitely worth it!

Witnessed a embarrassing display by an employee named Dan who claims to be a curator for this museum. He has junked up the place with fans from thrift shops.

A really fun tour to learn about ceiling fan history. Highly recommended for the inquisitive.

Tristan Crider

Amazing collection of history.

Richard Kulesza

I'm a fan. Weirdly specific museum. Probably amazing for a specific subset of engineers. Exactly what it says on the tin. Just hundreds of mostly similar fans with only hints of context.

Will Schrensky

I’m a HUGE fan of this place. The staff was friendly and the man who gave us a tour was passionate and knowledgeable. I took my girlfriend here for our one month anniversary and she had a lot of fun. It is the worlds largest public fan museum and an enjoyable experience for all ages. An Airy good place!!

Vincent Del Pizzo

Awesome museum, worth a visit! I'm a member of the AFCA and love fans, but even if you're not into fans, it is DEFINITELY worth a visit to learn about the history of fans, and to understand why we (as collectors) enjoy restoring and collecting them.

Jeron Sanders

Really interesting and off the beaten path place to take the family.

Andrew Okerson

This is not a place to take the kids if you're looking to spend a few hours somewhere. But if you love 19th century design, engineering, electronics or collectibles. This place will speak to you. The entire collection is on loan from members of the antique fan association. Each fan has a story.

Fans and Elevators with Mr. Pullchain

I am a vintage ceiling fan collector so the museum is very fun! Downstairs is the pre 1950's exhibit. They have fans that are pre electricity. Portable fans, desk fans, ceiling fans, etc. Upstairs is the post 1950's exhibit. All of the 100+ ceiling fans upstairs are powered and they all have remotes to turn them on different speeds. Same with the stairwell connecting the two rooms: 6 fans in the stairwell with remotes. You could spend all day here, or just skim through. Tours can be self guided and/or guided. You have to call ahead to schedule a guided tour. No entry fee. You can go right in and look around!
