Museum of Make Believe
Mission
Museum of Make Believe is dedicated to preserving the timeless art of storytelling within a uniquely creative environment unlike anything guests have seen before. Through entertaining and thought-provoking exhibits that offer a truly magical twist on the idea of seeing contemporary art, our dedicated staff and artists seek to inspire young and old alike with a warm feeling of something familiar and a reminder of childlike mystery; awakening feelings our guests may have forgotten and are longing to remember. Our Pledge to The Community: We’re proud to be part of the tremendously creative Orange County area and pledge to contribute to the region through a wide variety of educational opportunities, creative courses and workshops for local youth as well as the entire Orange County community. We maintain apprenticeship programs, partnerships with our local schools, outreach to local artists and other non-profit organizations.
Vision
Museum of Make Believe is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Museum of Make Believe invites you to step into a fantastical world of miniature scenes, puppetry, dreamlike paintings, thematic lighting, costumes, film and sound, all depicting original tales of the mystical and mythic. The stories are timeless and somehow familiar, as if conjured from a shared memory; or an imaginary world that has to be believed to be seen. Also, be sure to visit our enchanted ice cream shop and cafe, The Dream Parlor, and enjoy some surrealistically sweet treats. As the story goes, this magic parlor of electrified-blue appeared miraculously overnight in the year of 1857 to the amazement of the bewildered old west settlers of the region.
Goals
- 1.To open a larger museum to allow us to host our own programming and exhibits and provide accessibility to the community.
- 2.Our goal will be to continue to put our forward thinking focus on the intersection of storytelling and the arts. We will build exhibits that rely on this relationship between the two.
- 3.We plan to build a strong team of paid artists, administrators, educations and forward thinkers to allow us to offer the strongest programming, exhibits and events to our audience.
