Museum of Ventura County — Giving Tuesday — Time Running Out

by Community Contributor • November 25, 2021 • Comments Off

You can help us reach our $10,000 goal by end of day November 30th.

Dear Frank,

Time is of the essence! We are so excited to have gotten such a positive early response to our Giving Tuesday campaign this year to help keep your Museum free for everyone. In the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, we offered free admission to both the Museum of Ventura County and the Agriculture Museum in Santa Paula.

This meant:

Free exhibits of art and historical artifacts
Free programs like “Mindfulness at the Museum”
Free access to the Children’s Gardens in Ventura and Santa Paula
Free school tours for Title I schoolchildren across the County
Free live video and in-person author talks, panel discussions, and interviews
Free access to new online content launched each month, including puzzles, games, activities, digitized photographs, historic blogs, and articles.

As a cultural institution, we understand providing free admission gives community access to culturally significant activities, events, art, and historical artifacts that not everyone would be able to access otherwise. A gift to the Museum is a gift to the community. Now, more than ever, community connection is something to cherish.

If you’ve already given, there are still two ways you can get involved: share this email and our crowdfunding page with family and friends, and/or repost our Giving Tuesday social media posts on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Programming at your Museum of Ventura County is made possible by sponsors and supporters just like you. Please consider a donation today, and your gift will help ensure that the Museum of Ventura County continues to inspire vibrant communities by connecting the past, present, and future.
