CORONADO HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION AND MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND ART

Welcome -
	Can you help us solve these Coronado History Mysteries? Do you know who these people are? The Coronado Historical Association is seeking your help in labeling some of the photos in our collection. Each month we will be posting four new photos. Who, What, When & Where? What was the occasion and who were these people? Can you help us identify the people in these photos? Why were they gathered? And if you can also name the year, that's even better! More…
	Visions of Coronado A juried art show at the Coronado Museum of History & Art, January 12—February 20, 2012, showcases the work of local artists in a wide variety of media, materials and styles. All pieces are original art.
	Coronado on the Frontline: 1942-1945 This exhibit opens March 9th. Displays vividly portray what was happening on North Island, in homes, schools and churches and at the Hotel del Coronado after the bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Photographs, documents, letters and postcards from the Museum's archive, as well as artifacts representing Coronado during this period will be on view. A soundtrack from the era and a 1940s-style living room vignette provide an appropriate backdrop. One poignant component focuses on the Japanese American neighbors, friends and workers in Coronado who were isolated and sent to internment camps. The exhibit will remain on display through October.
	Coronado Home Front Project If you would like to continue to support the Coronado Historical Association and recognize naval aviators who once lived in Coronado, you can do so by either purchasing a sign in our museum store, or by contacting our office at (619) 435-7242.
