About The Autolawn

The Autolawn Party is an exciting, community event scheduled for Saturday, October 4, 2025, on the SALT Block North Lawn from 10 AM - 3 PM. The event is open to the public, and there is no charge for spectators, who can also vote for their favorite classic car. The celebration is centered around a European classic car show for the automotive enthusiast, but it’s far more than that. There’s something fun for everyone! The festivities include:

Car Show | Live Music | Food Trucks | Beer Garden | Merch for Sale
Awards Ceremony
| Art Exhibitions | Kid’s Art Activities

The Autolawn Party is an outdoor celebration of the road’s number one traveler – the automobile. Autolawn is unique in its size and scale having no more than 85 entrants. The intention is to provide a wide range of high-quality, original vehicles in an intimate yet informal setting, without the pressure of traditional concourse events.

Proceeds from the day’s events benefit the Museum’s educational programming. Autolawn is a rain-or-shine event.
