It looks like the Bowers Museum has bowed to the pressure we have been applying to them here at the Orange Juice! The Bowers’ July email newsletter includes this statement, “Free admission for Santa Ana residents** to ALL exhibits on Tuesday, July 10th and 24th, including Mummies: Death and the Afterlife, Treasures from Shanghai and GEMS! Colors of Light and Stone. Admission to these exhibits is usually $17.”
The Bowers Museum had previously not allowed Santa Ana residents to view the new exhibits for free. Now if only they would allow our residents, who fund all of the Bowers’ operational costs ($2 million per year) to go to the Bowers when we want to – and not just two days a month, we might be making some real progress.

Are you going to the Bowers today?
It makes no sense for you to continue to carp about it if you don’t go anyway.
Poster 3,
I rest my case – I worked all day, rushed to my four year old’s preschool to pick him up at 4:30 when they called to say he had a fever – then went to a meeting at city hall that did not get out until 7 pm.
This is what is stupid about the current Bowers policy – you get two arbitrary midweek days to go – why not let us in on a Saturday – when we have time to go?
The Bowers better change – the people are going to demand it…
