be a part of our newest installation!
We are thrilled to announce our new artist commission by textile artist, Toshiko Horiuchi MacAdam. This June, the joy of her unique climbing structure, Whammock!, will open at The New Children’s Museum for all of San Diego (and beyond) to enjoy – and we are honored to bring this spectacular artwork to our city.
Your donation will bring Whammock! to life and will be matched dollar for dollar by our Board members and lead supporters, Lynn Gorguze and Laurie Mitchell.
