Recent Work from the Valley of the Moon Main Stem Project.
- The Springs Museum takes some of its inspiration from the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History. It is a museum not of art, not of history, but of Art and History. In the case of this Project, art and history intersect.

Main Stem Project Photographs, East Side
CORRECTED LINK
Link to Flickr gallery of all the photographs of Highway 12 between Verano Blvd. and Agua Caliente Rd., on the east side, taken in 2008. These are the base photos the Main Stem Project. Only six years ago, but a lot has changed. Sidewalks! New businesses. Old businesses gone. A literal walk down memory lane.
West side to follow.

Bottle Village
The Springs Museum aspires to be, at least in part, a marvelous work of art in the mold of Grandma Prisbrey’s Bottle Village. We feel that obsessively collecting and then assembling artifacts and information from our community is inherently valuable and will result in beauty and a greater knowledge. And it’s really, really fun.
(Not) just another roadside attraction.
