Tom fires up the 4-cylinder Seal engine for a group of visitors. The engine collection we now have on display rivals some of the best in the world. Car and motorcycle clubs are making it a popular destination, but other skill and social clubs also enjoy a tour of the fine objects on display. (Click photo to view a larger image.)
If you are a member of a car, motorcycle, metalworking, woodworking model making or even a general interest or senior club, consider making the Craftsmanship Museum in Vista, CA a destination for your next group outing. The Craftsmanship Museum in Vista, CA is a great destination for any club with members interested in seeing some of the work great craftsmen can accomplish. As word has spread since we started our Saturday hours, many clubs have already had some enjoyable visits here. Below is a list and some photos of some of the special groups that have stopped by.
Museum Hours: M-F 9-4 (except holidays) and the first Saturday of each month 10-3. Special hours can be arranged on other Saturdays by appointment. Call Craig or Tom at 1-760-727-9492 to schedule a tour for your group. There is no admission charge to visit the museum, but voluntary donations are accepted. Handicapped accessible with an electric stair chair lift.
