Meet the Renowned Architect Behind the Chumash Museum: Johnpaul Jones

His exceptional portfolio includes over 650 projects, notably the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C.

Jones merges ancestral wisdom with architectural innovation, and his design for the museum was no exception. Each main structure, oriented towards the west, pays tribute to the Chumash’s cultural identity as the “guardians of the west gate.”

Join us on this fascinating journey, where ancient wisdom meets modern design to tell a compelling story of the tribe’s enduring legacy.
