Hi all,
I'm new to the forum and sort of renewed to modeling. I'm just starting to get back into military model and diorama building again after 30+ years. I discovered this forum while looking for a place to donate some of the dioramas I built many decades ago. I've sent out feelers to several museums in Arizona, but was wondering if there may be other places I should offer them to. Thanks in advance for any advice, and thanks for such a great forum...Jim

Thank you all for the warm welcome and some good ideas.
I'm in the process of relocating from the Phoenix valley to the Cottonwood area, downsizing to some degree. Thanks again...Jim
