Toy Stories: A Conversation with Master Collectors

Join us for a panel discussion with a local collector of antique mechanical toys; Pete Vilmur, longtime Lucasfilm historian and collector; and Steve Sansweet, founder and Executive Chairman of Rancho Obi-Wan, home to the world’s largest Star Wars memorabilia collection. Together, they’ll explore the stories behind their remarkable collections, share the art of preserving playthings from different eras, and discuss how toys—from clockwork marvels to cinematic icons—shape our sense of history, creativity, and imagination.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
