Year Founded: 1988 Description: With the belief that children are tactile and learn by doing, Gull Wings was born in 1988 through the energy and dedication of local educators who desired to provide a place of participatory learning for the community. In May of 1989, Gull Wings opened to the public at the present site generously provided by the City of Oxnard for a mere $1 per year. Our vision is for Gull Wings to be a place where children have fun while learning from exhibits that help them explore, imagine, and discover the world around them. The Ventura County Gull Wings Children's Museum provides a fun, hands-on, interactive and educational place for children ages 2-12 to learn by doing. Our goals include: Allowing children the opportunity to imagine, pretend, create and make their own choices. Offering touchable exhibits and programming that encourage children to explore and discover the wonders of everyday life and the world around them. Fostering a child's spirit of cooperation and mutual respect by working and playing together with others. Providing a place for parents, grandparents, educators and child care providers to participate and interact in the exploration and discovery process. In addition to being available for visits from schools, daycares, and the general community, Gull Wings is also available for private rentals and birthday parties. We also offer Gull Wings On the Go!, a traveling mini-museum on wheels.
