I do want to like this place and support a local business.... But. They just don't make it easy…read more The location is great. Neat little place and I love the local art. Those are the positives and that's where it ends. Let's start with the main product, coffee. It's HORRIBLE! I could be snarky and insulting but I kind of feel bad for them. I've tried a few drinks and there is this crazy after taste that is simply unpleasant. The baked goods are hot and miss at best. Often dry and tasteless. Now, the staff. Over the years they've had some wonderful people, but the good ones don't seem to stay more than a few months. For whatever reason they retain anyone devoid of personality and energy. Product knowledge is virtually nonexistent. Enthusiasm? You'd think that the caffeine would wake them up, but no. It's like they are on heroin. I've interacted with someone who I'm told was the owner, but I can't imagine someone so blah and uninterested decided to open a coffee shop. This place has potential if they simply replace the coffee, staff, and sell to someone who actually cares.

Nice! A new contemporary art gallery in Westlake! Marion Wood (affiliated with Studio Channel…read moreIslands in old towne Camarillo and TAG Gallery in Bergamot Station in Santa Monica) is a multi-faceted artist who is currently focussing on largish image scapes. The colors are vivid, the black on whites are beautifully understated, and some of the paintings use familiar items, such as coffee beans, for added texture. Interesting and inviting! Give her a look.

I hardly venture out to the St. Johns Hospital area because it is seriously too annoying (if you…read moredon't like getting stuck in traffic for 10 hours). I was invited to attend an event at the Artist Cantine to meet some organizations. So I went, I went with my coworker! The invitation said it was going to be in an art gallery, so that was very interesting. I love going to art galleries, so I was really OK with going to to this event (No offense to other events). OK so the art gallery is located in a strip mall call the Palms ( former Oxnard Outlets). The only times I've ventured out to this center is for my US citizen fingerprints, class for Cal Lutheran, and to buy furniture, however it's very easy to just zoom pass this shopping center because of locatioin wise (you can't get more awkward than tha). OK so I finally found the gallery, the exterior looked really cool, clean, open, relaxed, etc. People who were hosting the event were there, they had wine, hummus, crackers, cheese, and other H'orderves . When I arrived I was like wow! I knew I made a good choice deciding to come, the walls were full of art, interesting art. Art that I actually saw my self in. The owner of the art Gallery gave a speech about his gallery and why he opened it. It looks like he loves art, has passion for it, and therefore he worked hard to open the gallery. He also explained of the events that they are going to start hosting next year "Bohemian Nights." which are going to be cultural events i.e dancing, singing etc. Apparently the owner also invites the artist who post the art, so they can come and talk to the people who are interested. So I'll be keeping up with their website ,to see when artist are coming and what art I can snatch (buy). Which artist are here? Wow I was surprise to see some art from artist that are pretty known, i.e. Lalo Garcia. The owner said that he has art in the Los Angeles Cathedral, Our Lady Of Our Lady of Angels. Very surprise to hear that, it's not very common where you stumble upon art galleries in Oxnard (very rare) so this was a good fresh air! So why 4 stars. I don't like the location, it's really hidden, in a shopping mall that (if it was up to me, I would avoid). But I am going to try to make the effort to try and come here. However, all in all, a great find!

This placed is closed. Not art. Not open…read more When you get close to the place you can tell how run down and dilapidated it is. A real shame that this town has chosen other priorities (can't really tell what those priorities are cuz the whole of Oxnard is just a mess) over preserving a nice landmark such as this. Way to make Andrew proud, Oxnard.

Love that we have a little gem like the Studio Channel Islands art center in old town Camarillo…read more I've walked by this building many a times and always was curious what it was like inside. I came for a gala event over the weekend where they rented this space and was excited to check it out. There is plenty of parking as they have their own lot and we also were fine with parking across the street in the free two hour parking spots. The art center is small but a great way to see local art and pottery. They do have single stalls bathrooms inside the studio which is appreciated. It also looked like in one room they had jewelry for sale but I didn't give it a proper look as I was more focused on the artwork and decor. The reason for the docked star is simply because we wandered in as a part of an event that had rented the space and thus there wasn't a whole lot of art on display. What appeared to be up is their around the year collectibles and some small art work pieces. It's definitely better to plan ahead to come here when they are actually running an art exhibit or have an event specific to the art center. At least we got to check it out and have an idea about the space now. Very cool to have a place like this in Camarillo and eager to check them out again in the future so I can leave an updated review.

I'd argue that the "Commemorative Air Force museum" is a better representative of "Air" exhibits…read morethan the Smithsonian's " "Air and Space" museum. Sure the Smithsonian has some of the most historically significant airplane in aviation history but everything is so far away. All the exhibits here including the airplanes are within reach...one can experience there size and in many cases your able to look, touch, and walk into some (historic ) airplanes. One of personal life thrills is being able to sit inside a real MIG 29 cockpit which I did at this museum. Also in this visit we were within feet of one of the only flying B29 super-fortresses left. Our entire family was in awe of the planes and the stories the (wonderful ) docent regaled us with during our visit. It's not fancy...you are in fact inside a hanger with planes that do fly vs the Smithsonian but no less an opportunity to see historical planes and learn about the history of flight and the US Air Force ! Everyone associated with the museum is wonderful and friendly. We were told that the exhibits do change so visiting at least once a year will provide an opportunity to learn and see something new.
