Museum of Ventura County — Courage and Contribution, Patterns on the Land, and more!

In collaboration with the Ventura County Chinese American Association, the Museum is pleased to share with you this documentary film showcasing the many contributions of the Chinese American community in Ventura County. For over 150 years, Chinese Americans have been an integral part of Ventura County culture. This film showcases their first hand accounts and important 20th century history.

Congratulations to Sheila Berman, William Pruim and 2 other anonymous Museum members who each won an autographed copy of Chris Hillman’s CD “Bidin’ My Time!” Thank you for supporting your Museum!

There’s still a chance to win one of 2 remaining CDs by signing up or renewing your membership today!

In Virtual Learning Module #6

we invite you to record your daily experience during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic with a downloadable MVC Activity Sheet. Additionally, learn about the importance of collecting objects and stories from our present time for future generations to learn from.

This activity is designed for grades 6^th—12^th, but parents are encouraged to help younger children journal, too.

Check out the wonderful series, Parallel Stories at SBMA. Parallel Stories is a literary and performing arts series that pairs art and artists with award-winning authors and performers of regional, national, and international acclaim.

When you are done there, try out Art Matters, Studio Sundays or Art at Home. MVC recommends these great enriching and cultural online opportunities, a bonus, no drive time.
