Bob Moog Foundation 2024 Year In Review

video upload by moogfoundation

"2024 was as inspiring as it was challenging. Our three hallmark projects, Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, the Bob Moog Foundation Archives, and the Moogseum all saw great growth and growing impact. Hurricane Helene devastated our community and hampered our efforts -- but not for long. Thanks to the support and generosity of our worldwide community, we have been able to rebound, with a continued devotion to inspiring people of all ages and walks of life through the intersection of science, music, technology, and innovation.

We are grateful for all of the opportunities that 2024 afforded us and we look forward to 2025 with great anticipation.

Moogseum Window Install Timelapse After Hurricane Helene

video upload by moogfoundation

"Seven weeks after Hurricane Helene ripped our awning frame and cloth awning off our our building, causing both to crash into our window which broke into several places, we were finally able to get the window replaced. During the interim, the Moogseum has been boarded up, and hasn't looked very inviting. We are thrilled to have made the first step to bringing the Moogseum's exterior back to its original condition, as seen in this time lapse. The awning will be replaced in the next month or two.

Please consider supporting the Moogseum as we continue to navigate the long-term effects of Helene, which have resulted in more than $35,000 in lost income to date, with more expected by the end of the year.
