Mission San Juan Bautista Rehabilitation
CMF is working with Mission San Juan Bautista to help with a Rehabilitation Project for the front facade of the Mission Church. This project will strengthen the structure so that in the event of seismic activity, the landmark mission will be able to withstand the impact. We still need to raise about $100,000 for this critical project. If you would like to help fund this effort, please donate with "SJB Rehabilitation Project" in the notes section.
Mission Santa Inés Retrofit
CMF is working with Mission Santa Inés to acquire a critical retrofit for the mission. This important project will sustain this national historic landmark and its legacy in the Santa Ynez Valley for many years to come. Please click the picture below for more information about this crucial endeavor, to view our brochure, and to find out how you can help sustain California history in the Santa Ynez Valley.
The retrofit project at Mission Santa Inés is long overdue, and will fortify the historic church in hopes of preventing major damage during an earthquake. Work on the current mission church began in 1804, and today forms part of a National Historic Landmark area that also includes surrounding mission buildings and the mission grist mill operated by the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation.
