FUNBOX

Remember that magical feeling toys used to give you when you were a child? Do you remember your childhood dreams? We bring toys and the dreams you forgot about back to life! Our temporary pop-up will be sure to dazzle you with sights you have never seen before (or imagined). This will make kids go bonkers - and adults feel like they are 5 again.

FUNBOX is a brightly colored 9,000 sq ft maze of over 20 large art installations. We used over 60,000 pieces to make this a reality, including: Pool Noodles, Sticky Notes, Bananas, Flowers, Giant Crayons, Teddy Bears and much, much more. 

Antonio Nieves and Laurance Hallier, the founders of FUNBOX, collaborated with artists, engineers, and designers from all corners of the world to design and construct these 24 experiences. The inspiration came from Antonio's 10 younger siblings and Laurance's two sons. Laurance Hallier is a massively successful businessman creating over 20 businesses in his lifetime - including Taxi Tops which sold for $100M. Antonio Nieves is a budding entrepreneur and creative - with experience in the arts, marketing, and philanthropy. 

We are family friendly, suitable for children and adults. Children 5 and under are free. Please keep in mind this may be overwhelming for some children - but we will do our best to make sure everyone will have a wonderful time! 

Antonio watched his siblings be traumatically impacted by their time in the foster care system. FUNBOX will be supporting RaisingHOPE during our run in Thousand Oaks, CA. RaisingHOPE is a local based charity that provides advocacy, awareness and funds to abused and neglected children, many of whom are or were in the foster care system locally in Ventura County. Together, we can help live their dreams too.
