The Museum

Main Museum Building

Constructed in 1897, Barracks 104—as it was previously called—was part of a row of massive, brick Army barracks on Montgomery Street that were built to house soldiers. Long before the museum moved in, the building had been stripped of all of its historic interior walls, ceilings, and finishes by the Army.

Diane Disney Miller Exhibition Hall

Located in the building at 122 Riley Avenue, the Diane Disney Miller Exhibition Hall has housed several of the museum’s rotating, major exhibitions since November 2012. It was dedicated and renamed in March 2014 in memory of the museum’s founder and Walt Disney’s daughter, Diane Disney Miller. In 2024, the Diane Disney Miller Exhibition Hall became a bookable venue rental space, then in 2026 became the museum's home for Education programming.

The Riley Building

Erected in 1908, 122 Riley served as a combination brick gymnasium and post exchange, which included gymnastic apparatuses and bowling alleys. Sometime between 1922 and 1941, the gym was converted into “joints,” which included a service club, library, reading and writing room, billiard hall, game room, and more.
