The Santa Monica Historical Society Museum has received a $3,000 grant from the Kiwanis Club and the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Monica to pay for bus fares on the Big Blue Bus for school classrooms in the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and private schools to take field trips to the museum.
The free docent-led tour of the museum covers Native Americans of the bay area, California missions, founding and developments of Santa Monica Bay cities, as well as early California.
Teachers are encouraged to bring their students to see and learn more about Santa Monica’s history. To make a reservation, call the museum at (310) 395-2290. The museum is located at 1539 Euclid St.
