It's "you" who are the "we" that make things happen 

 

Together, we bridge the past with the future of Ojai in the Ojai Valley.  We take pride in the Museum and visitors comments, and we hope you do too. 

 

This is our once-a-year appeal to ask for your support to keep the Museum doors open to visitors and valley citizens alike.  Along with memberships, your generosity to the annual fund helps keep the lights on, run the Ojai Visitors Center, pay our director and her bare-bones staff, and design and equip us with materials for our ever-changing made-in-Ojai world-class exhibits.

 

Our 2014 annual fund goal is $60,000.  We welcome your participation in preserving and displaying our Ojai Valley heritage, art, and culture.
