Journey through the history of American pop culture in media, toys and comic characters as it shaped children in both entertainment and education at Geppi’s Entertainment Museum.  The museum’s collection is the representation of the vision of its founder, Steve Geppi. The museum is dedicated to the proposition that comic characters – whether entirely fictional or based on figures from real life – have played a hugely successful role in the entertainment and education of children, and in turn that this has played a huge factor in their lives. www.geppismuseum.com

Just a mile-and-a-half from Geppi’s Entertainment Museum is The Jewish Museum of Maryland.  The museum is currently hosting ZAP! POW! BAM! The Superhero: The Golden Age of Comic Books, 1938-1950, which features superhero memorabilia, original comic book art, and video interviews with the creators of superheroes, offers visitors an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the Golden Age of comic books.  www.jhsm.org
