Disney animator Milton Quon is seen holding a book open, which shows a drawing of Disneyland's Matterhorn Mountain. He is at the Chinese American Museum, located at 425 N. Los Angeles St., in El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument. The Chinese American Museum, or CAM for short, is housed inside the oldest surviving Chinese buildings in Southern California-the Garnier Building and an adjacent historic structure. CAM celebrated its Grand Opening on December 18, 2003, with over 800 people turning out to witness the historic occasion. Today, it is Southern California's first and only Museum dedicated to telling the history and stories of the Chinese American experience in Los Angeles. Photo dated: May 2, 2005.
