With the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, Kloha said he expects the number of annual visitors to return to 450,000 a year, up from a low of “about 180,000” at the pandemic’s peak. In 2022, he said, attendance was “a bit over 300,000.” WashTimesLocal

That’s quite intentional, to hit different age groups, different learning styles and present material in fresh ways.”
