IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE!

After more than two decades of dreaming, planning, fundraising, collecting, and building, the Surfing Heritage and Culture Center is opening the doors to its new home in the heart of Laguna Beach.

Just steps from Main Beach, SHACC's permanent museum will become home to the world's most comprehensive collection of surfing history and culture, creating an inspiring place where the stories, boards, photographs, films, music, and people that shaped surfing can be preserved and shared for generations to come.

We hope you'll join us for SHACC's Grand Opening Weekend, culminating with our Grand Opening Fundraising Gala on September 20th. Together, we'll celebrate the journey that brought us here, honor the people who made it possible, and help write the next chapter of SHACC's mission.
