Museum of Make Believe

Get ready to enter a whimsical world where fairy tales, ghost stories, and childhood daydreams come to life—welcome to the Museum of Make Believe in Laguna Beach! Tucked inside a cozy 1,000-square-foot storybook forest, this immersive fine art exhibit is a handcrafted haven of enchantment, featuring glowing fireflies, talking trees (well, almost), and treasures waiting to be discovered.

Explore beautifully detailed miniatures, original paintings, sculptures, puppetry, and more as you wind along a hand-painted cobblestone path through a peaceful, crowd-controlled space. Visit Starlight Park, a nostalgic circus tent nod to the golden age of radio, and don’t miss your dose of “miracle elixir”! Whether you're on a treasure hunt, meeting dragons, or just soaking in the imaginative vibe, this experience is perfect for curious kids (especially those of reading age) and story-loving adults alike.

Choose from a variety of magical ticket options—each one includes a golden dragon egg filled with keepsakes like a “tomorrow stone” gem and a surprise fortune. Plus, every ticket supports the museum’s nonprofit mission to spread wonder, whimsy, and creativity.
