New Summer Exhibit!

 

La Quinta Museum presents the new summer exhibit opening Friday, May 17: The Mysteriously Enchanting Salton Sea, an exhibit of the attraction of the Salton Sea in the 50s and 60s for boating, water skiing, fishing, camping, hiking, bird wat...ching and more!Salton Sea

With over 500,000 visitors per year in its heyday, the Salton Sea offered marinas, championship golf courses, shopping centers, a private airstrip, and luxury resort hotels. By the mid-1960s, park attendance rivaled that Yosemite National Park. Photographs and interview excerpts of current Salton Sea residents and visitors from Christina Lange's new book, "Portraits and Voices fo the Salton Sea," will offer a wider perspective on its history as well as a glimpse into its present existence.

The exhibit will be open though September! Please come enjoy!

This would be interesting to see! I enjoy learning how others live and lived in the past. I were living nearby I would come experience this event.
