Phineas Banning — entrepreneur, founder of the city of Wilmington, and “the Father of the Port of Los Angeles”— built this 23-room residence in 1864. It has since been restored and turned into a museum. The Banning House kicks off the Christmas season with its annual open house, featuring museum tours, Victorian period entertainment, refreshments, a children’s craft, a blacksmith, a horse-drawn trolley ride between The Banning Museum and Drum Barracks Civil War Museum as well as local food and craft vendors.
Please meet us inside the gate at M Street on the right side at 1 p.m. for a walk-through of the residence together. If you have trouble finding us, call Angelique Flores at 714-809-9799.
The museum will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. You will be free to enjoy the festivities before and after the tour. Admission fees are waived during this Christmas kickoff weekend.
We advise you to park on M Street or the side streets in that area. Street parking is ample, though it may require a little walking.
