New ‘Reagan’ movie museum planned for president’s hometown
Young America's Foundation (YAF) is partnering with the makers of the 2024 biopic "Reagan" to open a new museum in Dixon, Illinois, the small town where President Ronald Reagan grew up. The museum will permanently display original props and sets from the film, giving fans and visitors a chance to see film-accurate recreations tied to Reagan's life and presidency in the town most associated with his boyhood.
Among the exhibits confirmed is a replica of the Oval Office built for the film, which will become a permanent fixture. The announcement was revealed by YAF president and former Wisconsin governor Scott Walker, though further details on the museum's opening date, funding and full scope of exhibits were not disclosed in the report.
