KALAMAZOO, MI, November 24, 2025 — The Air Zoo Aerospace & Science Center is thrilled to welcome its newest traveling exhibit, Hall of Heroes, a dynamic and immersive experience that brings guests into the world of superheroes, crime fighters, gadgets, and spies. This limited-time exhibit is open now through Friday, February 13, 2026 and is included with general admission. People of all ages are invited to explore the stories, skills, and symbols that have shaped heroic characters for generations.

The adventure begins the moment guests step inside Air Zoo’s main exhibit hall,
