The C Street Surfing Museum is closed until further notice. The original "C Street Surfing Museum" was opened in March of 1992 as a tribute to the surfing history of Ventura. It featured a number of historically significant surfboards and other memorabilia indigenous of to the sport of surfing. In 2005, local surfers and people from our community presented the C Street Longboard Classic, a classic surf contest that raised funds for and helped create the "C Street Museum Foundation", a 501-c3 non-profit orginazation dedicated to the re-creation of a surfing museum in Ventura.
