THANK YOU 🙏 so much to Heather McRae of the Orange County Register for covering the opening reception for our latest exhibit.
https://www.ocregister.com/2021/07/26/fullerton-museum-center-reopens-with-new-visiting-exhibit/
-“Have Blues, Will Travel showcases the experiences of Black blues musicians who traveled the country from the 1930s to 1960s, and the dangers they faces, especially while touring in the south. The Negro Motorist Green Book, recently the topic of the Academy Award-winning film “Green Book,” was one resource the musicians relied on for safe places to stop, and is featured in the exhibit along with other artifacts and narratives.”
We had such a fantastic turnout for our re-opening party 🎉 and it was great to see our community come together to enjoy the museum again! 🙌
The exhibit gallery and gift shop are open:
Thursdays 4-8pm
Fridays 12-4pm
Saturdays 12-4pm
If you have any photos or videos of our event, please tag us @fullertonmuseum so that we can share.
A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out to our Beer + Wine Garden yesterday! 🌟 Our Thursday night Beer + Wine Garden is the FMC’s primary fundraising activity, and we greatly appreciated the outpouring of support from our wonderful community last night.
Don’t forget, our grand opening celebration is TOMORROW, Saturday July 24th from 6-9PM. Our friends at Bourbon Street and Bootlegger's Brewery have graciously sponsored our appetizers and beverages, and we will have a fantastic performance by Sista Jean!
Here are a few photos of yesterday’s gathering. Be sure to tag your friends!

MARK YOUR CALENDAR 🗓️ Our grand reopening is Saturday, July 24th! Join us from 6-9PM for the opening reception of our “Have Blues, Will Travel” exhibit!
“Have Blues, Will Travel” is inspired by the 2018 film "Green Book," directed by Peter Farrelly. The Green Book was a published tool that helped traveling Blues musicians find safe places to stay, eat, and perform.
Although this film is informative, it leaves out several details about discrimination against Black people during the Great Migration and emphasized a white savior narrative. With the usage of artifacts, photographs, and songs, this exhibit encapsulates the true struggle that Black Blues musicians faced while traveling and shows that the Green Book was much more than a travel guide but rather a lifesaving tool.
🌟 QUICK EVENT DETAILS 🌟
Date: July 24th, 2021
Time: 6:00 - 9:00PM
🌟 PRICING TIERS 🌟
2020 Members: FREE
Adults: $20
Children 5-18: $10
Children Younger than 5: FREE
