The funds will be used to produce informative booklets in conjunction with a “Discovering California” exhibit and will be given to students on their free classroom tours of the museum.

The exhibit features scale models of all the California Missions with figures of the Padres and Indians. It also delves into the lives of the Gabrielino and Chumash Native Americans and their interaction with the California Missions. The Missions paved the way for the early development of California, its cities and the Santa Monica Bay region.

Teachers are invited to bring their classroom for tours. For reservations call 395-2290.
