Located in Lang Ranch, at the top of Westlake Boulevard near Avenida de los Arboles, the Chumash Interpretative Center hosts a museum with various Chumash artifiacts and history, nature walks and tours of the beautiful local Oakbrook Regional Park area. The museum is open from Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.
Or just stroll around the 436 acre Oakbrook Regional Park that the Chumash Center is located on. There are hiking trails galore back here. Oakbrook is a County designated historical landmark (designated in 1983). There are 11 protected archeological Chumash in a narrow canyon at Oakbrook.
Something really neat they often do is hold authentic "pow wows." I used to live in the Lang Ranch area and would occasionally be mesmerized by beating drums on my local runs at sunset. Sounded really fun. Contact the Center for more information about these and other events, field trips, etc.
