First Friday Features The Night of the Nosferatu at the Museum of Ventura County

The Museum of Ventura County will host a First Friday event, 6–8 p.m., Oct. 5, celebrating the opening of The Night of the Nosferatu, an exhibit of George Stuart Historical Figures® not seen by the public in nearly forty years, that tells the fictional story about the bloodline of the original vampire, Count Dracula. Evening entertainment includes music with a DJ, refreshments and a no-host bar. Admission is free for members, $5 non-members.

The Night of the Nosferatu exhibit features figures originally created for a staged performance by the artist in 1979. Internationally renowned for their exquisite detail and historical accuracy, George Stuart Historical Figures® have been exhibited at the Museum of Ventura County, the Smithsonian Institution, the Bill Clinton Presidential Library, the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, the Ojai Valley Museum, The Mini-Time Machine: A Museum of Miniatures and in private collections.

The Museum of Ventura County is located at 100 East Main St., Ventura and is open Tuesday through Sunday 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. For more information on the exhibit and museum events call (805) 653-0323.
