An Idea Is Born
An Idea Is Born
In 2013 Mr. Robert Garcia of "Garcia Mortuary" in Oxnard invited "Artists Melting Pot" in Port Hueneme (AMP) to set up an art venue at an Historical Cemetery in Port Hueneme/Oxnard. Mr. Garcia and the AMP Artists and our newly formed Adopt-a-Plot crew along with other community volunteers starting cleaning and restoring the site.
AMPM continues to collaborate with Mr. Garcia and the community to fulfill the dream at Oxnard/Port Hueneme Pleasant Valley Historic Cemetery today.

YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
From the beginning Nancy Cozza President of AMPM recognized that Pleasant Vally Historic Cemetery was an overwintering site for Monarch Butterflies. But the site needed to be rehabilitated. due to expansion of human infrastructure and the loss of the butterflies roosting trees. Nancy contacted Xerces Society (xerces.com) for Invertebrate Conservation, a science backed non-profit organization and listed the forgotten site in order to receive government grants. Well here we are six years later. Please watch the video. By: Drastic By Design
