Fall in love with West Place Animal Sanctuary and celebrate several historic milestones!
During this event only, take a special tour around the home originally belonging to Dr. Samuel West as we commemorate its 150th anniversary. Learn about the previous owners and the rich history of "The West Place," long before it was home to rescued farm animals.
September also marks 18 years since West Place officially earned 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Although our rescue and rehabilitation work began before 2007, we celebrate this achievement and the longevity that few nonprofits experience.
Last but certainly not least, we're also celebrating Hayden's 15th birthday next month! Come wish him a happy birthday in person.
PLUS, you'll meet Lata, a baby elephant from The Great Elephant Migration that began in Newport and ended in Los Angeles. Lata will be on loan to West Place and available for viewing during Fall Visitors Weekend.
BACK AGAIN are special Driving Tours of the sanctuary taking place at 4pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Be among the first to see the newly renovated barn, and don't forget to leave time to explore the West Place Gift Shop. You'll find locally-crafted jewelry, artwork, clothing, accessories, and much more!
Tickets are available now at an online discount, and kids tickets are always discounted.
