Our favorite mechanic Sally Dawson is back by popular demand!


We invite you to spend your Saturday morning learning about your car with mechanic Sally Dawson, owner of  Foxy Auto. She owned one of the few female-owned and operated auto repair shops in the country. After eighteen years, Sally closed her shop to transition towards teaching others about the skills and techniques she picked up during her career. She has been featured on the  Today Show, Motor Magazine, and more recently in the November 6th, 2024 issue of The Boston Globe! Come and join us as we learn from a pro with your vested interests at heart!


This informative session will focus on basic car care. Whether you have attended one of her previous forums or not, there is always something new to learn!

Topics will include:

• Owning your Owner’s Manual and Keeping Your Car Clean

• The Only Thing between You and the Road… Tires!

• How to Handle a Vehicle Emergency

• What’s Under the Hood – Simple Maintenance


This is open to all ages – from new drivers to seasoned veterans hoping to learn a little bit more and become more confident with their car maintenance! Women and new drivers are strongly encouraged to attend


The registration fee is a donation to the Museum of $20. Please pay via the registration link!
