Description	Phase 1 of the 1940 Air Terminal Museum opened on January 9, 2004 . The ongoing 1940 Air Terminal Project will restore the long-vacant Houston Municipal Airport Terminal and will outfit and operate the Terminal as an interactive museum showcasing the role and importance of civil aviation in the Houston area since the dawn of manned flight. The 1940 Air Terminal will serve as the centerpiece for an aggressive, creative educational outreach program which will send trained volunteers into neighborhood schools and use Houston's aviation heritage to inspire young people.

The Museum also welcomes senior groups and actively recruits volunteers as docents and for other museum functions.
