The Creation and Earth History Museum is a 7500 sq. ft. showcase for a literal six-day creation and young earth with an ever-growing emphasis on God’s design in creation.

Craftsmanship Museum
Carlsbad, California

Culture, General, History, Library, Science, Specialized

This museum features works that represent the spirit and skill of individuals; not committees or manufacturing companies. These projects were built by people with skilled hands and brains, but, most importantly, they were built for the love of doing it. Coming from the hands, the brain and the heart, they should be judged not just as a collection of parts, but rather as art. Other forms of art, such as dance, painting, music and so on are sufficiently represented elsewhere, so we are concentrating here on small things made by hand by an artisan using the tools of his trade.
