We are deeply honored to share some wonderful news with our community: This morning, the Stahls Automotive Foundation was named ‘Nonprofit of the Year’ by the Anchor Bay Chamber of Commerce!
Receiving this award, specifically for identifying a need and making a charitable difference right here in our local community, means the world to our entire team.
At Stahls, we’ve always believed the Motors & Music Experience is hard to describe: somewhere between a gathering place, a shared classroom, a way to give back to the incredible neighbors and organizations who support us year after year, and so much more! We love rallying behind our veterans during our annual open house, teaming up with groups like Guardian Angels Medical Service Dogs, and simply giving people a welcoming place to connect. Being a positive force right here in our own backyard is what drives us every single day.
Thank you to the Anchor Bay Chamber for this incredible recognition, and thank you to every single person who visits, volunteers, and supports our mission. We are just getting started!! 🚗🎶

Day: Saturday, October 17th

At Stahls, we are proud to sponsor the next generation of motorsport talent, cheering on fearless drivers who bring passion, grit, and awesome performances to the racetrack. We are excited to feature two incredible young racers representing our museum!
Charlie Baur
Charlie Baur is an ambitious 20-year-old, first-generation sprint racer from Fenton, Michigan, and the first official athlete sponsored by Stahls Motors and Music Experience. Charlie began driving at the age of 3, starting with snowmobiles, moving on to four-wheelers and jet skis. At 12 years old he started racing quarter midgets, then upgraded to race karts. When he turned 16, Charlie set in motion his passion for sprint racing, and today he competes with both pavement and dirt sprint cars.His journey still has its fair share of twists, turns, and challenges – but such is the reality of the racetrack, and life itself. He faces hardships head-on, and Stahls is proud to sponsor such an important member of the new generation’s athletes and car lovers.
Andrew Bogusz
Joining Charlie as a proud representative of Stahls is 20-year-old Andrew Bogusz. A mechanical engineering student at Lawrence Technological University, Andrew competes full-time in the Tri-State Sprints series and the Grand Bend Speedway Weekly Series for Eddie Sachs Racing, driving the No. 17 winged sprint car. Andrew’s racing career started in quarter midgets and dirt go-karts before moving up to sprint cars in 2022, where he earned the Must See Racing Midwest Lights Rookie of the Year award. Over four full-time seasons, he racked up an impressive seven wins, 31 top-five finishes, and a best points finish of third.
Join us in celebrating both Charlie and Andrew as they fly the Stahls flag high on tracks across North America! 🏎️💨
Welcome to Stahls Motors & Music Experience, Michigan’s destination where automotive history and music come alive. Explore rare and iconic automobiles alongside extraordinary automated musical instruments, all presented as living, moving history.
From daytime tours to Night at the Museum under a neon glow, Stahls offers immersive experiences that connect design, engineering, sound, and storytelling. Special events, speaker series, concerts, and community fundraisers keep the collection vibrant and always changing.
More than a museum, Stahls is a place to experience the creativity and innovation that shaped how we move and how we listen. Whether you’re a classic car enthusiast, music lover, educator, or first-time visitor, there’s something here that will surprise and inspire.
Step inside and experience where rhythm meets the road.
What started as a special after-hours favorite has officially become a tradition. Night at the Museum is now a year-round, monthly event, giving guests more opportunities than ever to experience the magic of Stahls Motors & Music Experience after dark.
Once a month, the doors open in the evening and the collection takes on an entirely different personality. Neon signs glow brighter, chrome reflects the lights, and the sights and sounds of automotive and musical history come alive in an intimate nighttime setting. It’s a chance to slow down, wander, and experience the museum in a way daytime visits simply can’t replicate.
Night at the Museum offers full access to the collection, from rare and historic automobiles to extraordinary automated musical instruments. Guests can enjoy the atmosphere at their own pace, perfect for date nights, friends’ outings, or anyone looking for a unique Michigan evening experience. The ambiance alone makes it one of the most photogenic classic car events in Metro Detroit.
By extending Night at the Museum throughout the year, Stahls is answering one of the most common requests from visitors: more chances to experience the collection after hours. Whether you’re a first-time guest or a longtime supporter, each monthly event offers a familiar favorite with a fresh feel, shaped by the season, the lighting, and the energy of the crowd.
If you’ve only seen the museum during the day, Night at the Museum invites you to see it in a whole new light… literally. With its blend of glowing neon, timeless design, and immersive history, this monthly evening event has quickly become one of the most memorable ways to experience Stahls.
Night at the Museum now happens every month, making it easier than ever to plan an unforgettable night surrounded by automotive and musical history.
How Spooky! 👻🍬 Bring the whole family for a fun-filled afternoon of candy, costumes, and spooky surprises, all indoors! What to Expect: Trick-or-Treat fun for kids of all ages Halloween-themed […]

This museum is so cool and free. They ask for donations and they are open 1-4 on Tuesdays. We decided to stop in and it was very busy. They allow strollers/wagons/wheelchairs in and there is plenty of space to get through. No drinks are allowed or food. They also do not allow anything to be touched. Children must be with you at all times to avoid touching anything. When we walked in they were playing beautiful music. The kids loved it a lot. They had so many cars. My kids were getting tired for nap so we left pretty quickly but we got to see so much. They do allow you to take a photo on one of the cars. They said there was a bike as well somewhere to ride but we didnt see one when we were walking. We will look next time. Overall it is a fun experience to check out.
