Exhibit Opening: Her Side of the Story: Tales of California Pioneer Women
Join us to celebrate the opening of Museum’s latest special exhibition, Her Side of the Story: Tales of California Pioneer Women, featuring 30 first-person accounts collected from women who traveled by land or sea to settle throughout California prior to January 1, 1854. Personal artifacts from local Petaluma pioneer women will be on display, including journals, bonnets and dresses, a hoop skirt form, a blanket chest, and more. Additionally, the exhibition includes forty diverse portraits of unidentified women, representing the thousands of pioneers whose stories were never recorded and are lost to time.
