🍊OTPA’s “Historic on the outside, Quantum on the inside: the Lydia D. Killefer School tour”

OTPA kicks off our 2026 education series with a tour and visit inside the historic Killefer School!  

Reserve your spot to come inside the school and learn the historic significance that the Killefer school played in being one of the first schools in California to desegregate. Collette Creppell, Vice President of Campus Planning and Design for Chapman University, will share the fascinating story of the building and lead a private OTPA tour.

Recently opening as the Daniele C. Struppa Research Park by Chapman University, the university transformed the former elementary school into a research lab, modernizing the interior for physics research, while respecting and maintaining the building’s historic architecture and significance.

An RSVP is necessary for this free event and only 25 spots are available!

ONE TICKET per attendee is REQUIRED. 

ONLY 25 spots are available, please do NOT bring extra attendees that do not have a spot confirmed. Thank you!
