National Gallery Induction Ceremony & Benefit

The National Gallery for America’s Young Inventors (a program of the National Museum of Education) is the country’s official organization established to take the great ideas of America’s youth and preserve them forever in history. Each inductee is either a national invention competition winner, a patent holder, or has his/her product on the national market. The six inductees have been chosen by the National Gallery’s Student Board of Directors, which is composed of students from across the nation. The National Gallery is sponsored by the Edison Innovation Foundation, Newark, New Jersey.

This year’s speakers are Dr. Ronald Mallett, a world-renowned theoretical physicist who currently teaches at the University of Connecticut, is the author of the “Time Traveler” and continues to work on his time machine; and Michael Berardi who has a varied background in music as a professional songwriter including over 150 songs with his own record company MRB Records. He is also the co-founder of Photo to Art, and is presently the inventor of the revolutionary Xhose, the first expandable garden hose to use an inner expandable tube and an outer fabric webbing.
