The museum of Ventura County is in a rather plain looking building across and down from the Mission. Your first tip is to drive about 100 yards north of the mission and park opposite the Museum of Ventura. There are a group of 4 parking spots that are free! Not the park and pay back into old town. Additionally the parking lot at the museum is free. Now back to the museum. I visit a lot of different small museums and the display of the history of photography with a story line about people in Ventura is a knockout. It is a world class display. The layout, lighting, continuity, and story are fabulous. Whoever planned and executed this one get 5 gold stars from me. I hope you can get to see it. There are other displays about Cuba by a wonderful photo journalist, another display of Lincoln and his life – very well done too – and other displays about the local indians. All in all this is a museum I will be checking in on as displays change. Hope to see you there.

Definately a must see if you are in Ventura. They have an amazing display of handmaid figurines of hitler, Stalin and many more. They look so realistic. The artistry is great. The whole place has all types of art from Indian to oil paintings. What an amazing museum!!!

Its a super neat museum that rests at the furthest part of old town ventura. The exits are neat and kind of keep with the native habitats of the area along with some historical artifacts as well. The museum staff are also quite knowledgeable.
