Exclusive Tour of The American Journey Experience led by Tania & Glenn Beck!
Glenn Beck founded The American Journey Experience in 2010, along with its sister charity, MercuryOne. Partnered with Wallbuilders and historian David Barton, it is the 3rd largest collection of American documents spanning from 1500 - today.
This incredible collection is outsized only by the National Archives and Library of Congress! The founding goal and mission of The American Journey Experience is to preserve and share the items that tell the stories of America - good, bad and ugly - and to bring these stories to life.
After 10 years of acquisition, The American Journey Center is now preparing to build a world-class museum and center for public visits and scholarly studies. However, this personalized tour led by Glenn and Tania Beck for up to 15 guests is not available to the general public and was made possible only for The Westlake Academy Foundation's Gallery Night event!
With Glenn and Tania as your docents for this rare in-vault experience at the Irving, TX Mercury Studios (formerly Paramount Studios), your group will be immersed in the documents, artifacts, and stories that molded this great country. Here's just a sampling of the American pop culture treasures that you'll enjoy - Darth Vader mask from a New Hope * R2D2 and C-3PO * Charlie Bucket's Golden Ticket * the shield and helmet of Captain America * Dorothy Gail's ruby slippers * the Heart of the Sea from the movie "Titanic" * the cup of the carpenter in "Indiana Jones" * the slave ships in "Ben Hur" * the Ten Commandments tablets * the original "Ghostbusters" Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and so much more!
There are also rare documents from the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witch trials * Abraham Lincoln's personal bible * Mary Todd Lincoln's funeral dress * the key to the Presidential Box at Ford's Theater * FDR's wheel chair * America's first electric chair * a French guillotine * and the true history of black American patriots. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Mutually agreed upon date. Tour must be completed by April 30, 2023.
