The Santa Monica Historical Society Museum has received a $1,500 grant from the Rotary club of Santa Monica for its educational programs.
The grant is being used to produce a booklet created in conjunction with the museum's "Discovering California" exhibit. The booklets will be given to students taking docent-led classroom tours of the museum.
The exhibit features scale models of all the California Missions with scale figures, and depicts the lives of Gabrielino and Chumash Native Americans and their relationship to the missions.
Teachers who wish to arrange for their classes to tour the museum should call (310) 395-2290.
