Mosey on down to the Santa Maria Valley Discovery Museum on Sunday, August 26 for a free “Day at the Ranch” in honor of museum benefactor R.H. Tesene. The event will feature cattle roping, brand making, cake, and more from noon to 4 p.m.
Staff and volunteers will teach kids how to rope cattle, make a custom brand, and play ranching-themed games. There will also be a special visit from miniature horse Little Bear and Oberon the gypsy horse of Los Flores Ranch Park. The day will culminate with free birthday cake and beverages in honor of Mr. Tesene, a well-known real estate investor and entrepreneur in the Santa Maria Valley.
Tesene’s generous donation allowed us to move into our current location on McClelland Street 13 years ago, and his BBQ Hall of Fame is a popular fixture in the museum.
Located at 705 S. McClelland St., the Discovery Museum is fun for all ages, with 13,000 square feet of “please touch” exhibits, weekly programs and special events that explore ourselves, our valley, our world and beyond. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Discover the power of play at the only children’s museum in Santa Barbara County.
