Mission Statement
Our goal is to serve the San Fernando Valley's residents, businesses, students and tourists alike, promoting "in-tourism" and providing support for all of the Valley’s cultural and historical organizations. We are, and will continue to grow, as an institution that explores art, history and culture in every new and exciting way possible. In 2014, we secured a permanent full-service museum headquarters and exhibition space in Northridge, to house and expand our collections. The Museum Board anticipates satellite venues throughout the Valley and a strong internet presence to expand our educational reach on an infinite level.
Description
The Museum of the San Fernando Valley straddles two worlds. While our role is to preserve, document and celebrate the past, using our acquisitions to educate and enlighten, our vision is to present continually changing exhibitions interactively, in a manner worthy of this great creative community that shapes contemporary culture worldwide. We eagerly embrace new concepts and technologies that showcase the past in a fresh light. In some instances, we will bring The Museum right to the people. In others, the experience may be virtual.
