Pavek Museum of Electronic Communication

Since 1988, the Pavek Museum has been Minnesota's hub of electronic communication connecting people to the past by collecting, preserving, interpreting, and sharing the history, science, art, and technology of electronic communication. A private, nonprofit organization, the Pavek Museum maintains a premier collection from the 19th Century to the present documenting the history and innovation of electronic communication technologies and presents its unique collection through exhibitions, tours, events, and youth, adult, and family programs. The mission of the Pavek Museum is to share how pioneers in electronic communications created enormous impacts on the evolution of society, to inspire in people a passion to make contributions to our quality of life through science and the communication arts, and to preserve the rich mosaic of the development of electronic communications through a historically significant, permanent, and living repository.
