Oxnard, CA — October 1, 2012 — On Sunday, the
Gull Wings Children's Museum had its' grand re-opening to celebrate new exhibits, structural upgrades, additional programs and of course - fresh artwork to signify the museum's new era under Julia Chambers, operations director.
When the director of the Gull Wings Children's Museum asked me to create something colorful and unique for the grand re-opening event, I knew I had to include three very important aspects that put this little museum in a class of its' own. First, it is located in Oxnard, a culturally distinct city that continually draws from its' agricultural and industrial roots.
Secondly, the museum is situated only a few miles from the iconic beaches known throughout the world as 'Surfin' USA!' And last but not least, the museum itself. Within the heart of the city's historic downtown, the Gull Wings Children's Museum offers thoughtful insight into the only two natural resources we have: the physical world we live in and the children that are running, jumping and playing in the middle of it.
