The Charles M. Schulz Museum opened its doors on the weekend of August 16-18, 2002. The Museum is located in Santa Rosa, California, and is dedicated to preserving and displaying the art of Charles Schulz, creator of the Peanuts comic strip. For more information, visit the Museum's web site.

I was fortunate to be able to attend, and the Musuem staff graciously gave me permission to take photos of the events and inside the Museum, and share them on this website.
