Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center

The museum opened on August 17, 2002, two years after Schulz died, and is in Santa Rosa, California.

Two works by Japanese artist Yoshiteru Otani dominate the Great Hall:[1] a 3.5-ton wood sculpture depicting the evolution of Snoopy and a 22 ft (6.7 m)-high ceramic mural made of 3,588 Peanuts strips which combine to form the image of Lucy van Pelt holding the football for Charlie Brown to kick it.

[2] Among the museum's permanent exhibits are a work by Christo which depicts Snoopy's doghouse wrapped, an exhibition of foreign language editions of Peanuts books, Schulz's personal studio and tributes to Schulz from other artists.

[3] Inside the museum are three rotating galleries with exhibits that change every year.
