This Father’s Day, we’re celebrating Lonnie Mimms—father, founder, board chairman, lifelong computer enthusiast, and the visionary behind Mimms Museum of Technology and Art.

What started with a Sol-20 computer his father bought for him grew into a passion for preserving the history of technology and inspiring future generations of innovators.

When asked about his favorite exhibit, Lonnie said:
“That’s like asking me to pick a favorite child. It’s all of them — and the ones to come too!” 💻

We were thrilled to welcome David Pogue to Mimms Museum of Technology and Art for a special presentation celebrating 50 years of Apple innovation 🍎

David brought the perfect mix of humor, insight, and storytelling as he shared highlights from his new book, ""Apple: The First 50 Years.""

A great fit alongside our iNSPIRE: 50 Years of Innovation from Apple exhibition, the event sparked a fun, thoughtful look at the legacy of one of tech’s most iconic companies.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for an afternoon of conversation and celebration!

Bold colors, iconic titles, and a whole lot of nostalgia 🎮

Our “Art & Evolution of Chips” wall celebrates the game cartridges that changed the way we play. Before cartridges, consoles came with only a fixed set of games — until innovators like Jerry Lawson and the team behind the Fairchild Channel F revolutionized the industry with removable game cartridges.

From the Atari 2600 to Nintendo and Sega, these tiny plastic shells packed endless adventures onto a single chip and helped shape gaming culture as we know it. Stop by and spot some of your favorites from the golden age of gaming 👾

Before Apple changed the world, it started with big ideas, late nights, and a garage 🔧🍎

The Origin Story room inside iNSPIRE takes visitors back to the earliest days of personal computing, where a group of visionaries helped spark a technological revolution that would change everyday life forever.

See five original Apple I computers, explore the influence of the Homebrew Computer Club, view the second Apple check ever written, and listen to some classic Wozniak jokes that certainly kept the engineering geniuses behind the movement energized to keep innovating 💻✨
