About the Exhibit

The exhibit will be hosted at the Coastside History Museum (505 Johnston Street, Half Moon Bay). Together we’ll celebrate our community’s creativity and preserve these visions for future generations.

Stay Connected

We’ll share more details about the archive, online gallery, and future storage of submissions as the project develops.

This promises to be a fun, collaborative, and imaginative journey — and we look forward to seeing what you create!
