“The purpose of the NCA shall be to promote conservation, appreciation, knowledge and enjoyment of the art of the classic wooden carousel and especially the preservation of complete operating carousels.”
Since 1973 the National Carousel Association has been working
to keep America's remaining carousels in operation. Through a
wide range of programs and projects, the NCA has participated
in the restoration and preservation of many of the antique
carousels in operation in our country today.
Want to help ensure that these carousels will be around for your
children and grandchildren?
Join the National Carousel Association today! And now you can join the NCA or renew your membership online using your credit card or PayPal account!
