  • Request for Hornet Community Outreach Appearance

    The USS Hornet Sea, Air & Space Museum participates in on site events to support nonprofit organizations and schools in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. We host information booths, hands-on STEM tables, and cockpit appearances.

    We welcome you to submit your request for Community Outreach or a cockpit to attend your event for your guests to get inside, take photos, and speak to the experts! Our goal is to fulfill as many requests as possible, but, unfortunately, we cannot support every organization.

    The USS Hornet Museum requires that all donation requests meet the following criteria:

    • Requests must be made by a registered, local non-profit, charitable organization with current 501(c)3 status of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, a public or independent school, or a U.S. Military organization.
    • Requests must be received at least ninety days (90) prior to your event date. Six month lead times are preferable. 

    Please Note: The USS Hornet reserves the right to apply "appearance fees" for our cockpits to any event depending upon travel distance, number of expected participants in the event, and length of time the cockpit is being requested. There is an oppurtunity to have these fees waived, which will be determined on a case-by-case basis. 

  • What are you requesting for your event? (check all that apply)*
  • To cover the costs of transportation, insurance, and crew for all cockpit appearances, we request an appearance fee of $500. This includes the cockpit section and trailer for the entire day as well as an outreach table and/or STEM activities.

    However, the Hornet loves supporting our community partners and does not want to discourage any organization that cannot afford this fee. When booking is confirmed, we will send a user-defined payment link.
