Museums & Exhibits

  • Colleen Moore's Fairy Castle: Breathtaking! I've been in love with this castle since I was a little kid. Created by the original 1920s "flapper" at the height of her silent film career, this castle cost nearly half a million dollars to build. Over 700 individuals lent their expertise to this project, including Hollywood set designers and art directors, surgical instrument lighting specialists, Beverly Hills jewelers and Chinese jade craftsmen. Truly a wonder!
