Coming Downtown for the Senior Games? Make Plans to Visit the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s Learning Center and Money Museum

If you're coming downtown for the 2013 National Senior Games, make plans to visit the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland's Learning Center and Money Museum. Family members of all ages will enjoy the Learning Center's 25 interactive exhibits and displays focused on what gives money value.

And during the Senior Games, visitors can share stories about a memorable money-related experience – the first time they saved their pennies (or dollars) for a never-to-be-forgotten purchase.

Learning Center visits also provide an opportunity to view the Bank’s magnificent Italian Renaissance lobby, described by one observer as"walking into the interior of a bar of gold."

The Learning Center is open year round, Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., except holidays. It's located inside the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, 1455 East Sixth Street, in downtown Cleveland. Admission is free!
