Walter P. Chrysler Museum Launches New Web Site at New Web Address

www.wpchryslermuseum.org reflects Museum's nonprofit designation

Enhanced content management capabilities keep site current

AUBURN HILLS, Mich., May 13 -- The Walter P. Chrysler Museum has launched a bold, new Web site, providing easy online access to the Museum's programs and exhibitions, as well as Chrysler heritage, with a new Web address: WPCHRYSLER.

The new .org URL reflects the Museum's status as an independent 501 (c)(3) nonprofit public charity. As the Walter P. Chrysler Museum Foundation, the Museum continues its long-standing mission of preserving Chrysler's rich history and educating the community about that legacy, as well as the automobile's impact on American culture.

The mission is handsomely reflected within the online pages of the Museum's new site. The home page welcomes visitors with regularly-changing exhibit/event, vehicle and gift shop merchandise features - currently spotlighting the Museum's 4th annual summer Cruise Night series, the temporary Jeep(R) in the Movies exhibit and the 1928 Chrysler Model 72 LeMans Racer.

      every page - placing all site content within a few clicks of the
      mouse.
