Adopt-a-Bone Project: Take part in the Ojai Valley Whale Society’s whale exhibition by participating in the Ojai Whale “Adopt”-a-Bone Project. “Adopt” a bone, and your name-or the name of a person, school, or class you wish to honor-will be displayed with the long-term exhibition of the skeleton. When you make your payment, you will receive a “Certificate of Adoption”, and your gift will also be recognized in the Society’s report. Gifts to the “Adopt”-a-Bone Project are used for the re-articulation/re-creation and exhibition of the Ojai whale skeleton at a museum that will sustain programs of research, exhibits, publications, music and education.
