???? We're just a few weeks away from the 2nd annual Derby in December, and we can't wait to welcome everyone through our doors with FREE admission! This year is incredibly special with Churchill Downs Racetrack and Kentucky Derby Festival joining forces with the museum to bring you Derby-themed activities to celebrate throughout the day. There will be photo ops galore, but one that we want to make sure is on your radar: the "Run for the Roses" Celebration. Churchill Downs will mark the 100th anniversary of this iconic phrase with a unique photo opportunity featuring the Kentucky Derby 151 trophy and a replica of the famed rose garland. ???? #DerbyMuseum #DerbyinDecember #Derby151
