Santa Ynez Chumash Museum and Cultural Center tour

This brand new museum is finally open! Let's immerse ourselves in Chumash culture, worldview, and creativity.

What's waiting for us there: stunning woven baskets, innovative tools, a cool tomol canoe, interactive displays and stories. And of course, we've got to check out the epic dome-shaped buildings designed by the renowned architect Johnpaul Jones, inspired by traditional Chumash homes. It can take up to 2 hours to see it all!

It's quite a drive from here to Santa Ynez (but worth it, I think!) If you'd like to carpool, comment under the event and coordinate with other interested folks.

Please allow sufficient time for travel — we should start touring no later than 3 pm if we want to see all the exhibits!

Tickets: $15 per adult (can be purchased online or onsite).
