Edison NHS has entered a second year of planned restoration and renovation.

There are great lessons to learn from Edison about hard work, creative genius, methodical research, practical design, and manufacturing-- lessons that still apply to our lives and times.

When we reopen, please join us to explore the life and work of Thomas A. Edison, the world's most prolific inventor. Bring your family: There will be something for everyone!

Until then, today's technology allows us to make Edison and his inventions accessible to you through virtual exhibits and tours even while our gates are closed.

We think Mr. Edison would have liked that.

At the turn of the Twentieth Century, his improvements to the telegraph and the telephone placed him on the cutting edge of communication technology. Here, in the early Twenty-first Century, we intend to keep him there.

Please check back with us often to see the progress of the renovation and to find new Edison facts to explore.

Maryanne Gerbauckas
Superintendent
