Proposed Art Museum to Take Place of Old Taco Bell
While the opening of the California Museum of Art-Thousand Oaks is still years away, supporters are pursuing a more immediate goal: They’re setting up an interim location that will offer art exhibits and programs.
The temporary gallery and operations office will be at 1948 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd., on Dallas Drive at the entrance to the Civic Arts Plaza. The permanent museum is planned for the same site.
As a nonprofit, the museum group will rent the 1,800-square-foot building—formerly The Wineyard and before that a Taco Bell—from the city for $1 a year.
