RICHARD HILTON CHAIRS THE MUSEUM'S CULTURAL TOURS COMMITTEE

Van Nuys Grammar School 1912 - Gift to The Museum of the San Fernando Valley by Gary Fredburg 2008 (click on image to enlarge)

Fresh from leading the First Annual Walk It Off (post Thanksgiving historic walking tour of North Hollywood), Richard Hilton has taken on an even larger assignment. Hilton, an accomplished actor and historic preservationist, will chair The Museum of the San Fernando Valley's Cultural Tours Committee.

Richard has already announced two new walking tours for early 2009. The first will be walking tour of the NoHo through the theater and arts district. Another tour for historic Van Nuys is planned. Community input is welcomed.


The San Fernando Valley, in the Heart of the Creative Capital of the World, deserves a great Museum of history and culture.
