The San Buenaventura Sister City Association in cooperation with the Museum of Ventura County and the Latino Advisory Committee to the Museum invite you to a private showing of “La Recua”.

Skateboarding legend Stacy Peralta directs this look back at the birth of modern skateboarding via an examination of the Zephyr skating team, who brought Southern California surf style and street culture to the burgeoning sport and, searching for new spots and ways to skate, employed the handiwork of the government and corporate structure in ways the original architects could never have imagined.

Featuring never-before-seen works in Los Angeles or the United States, the presentation offers a glimpse into the evolving practices of these pioneering voices.
