Society Of California Pioneers

Highlights of recent seasons include "Points of Interest: The Lawrence and Houseworth Albums" featuring over seventy rare stereoviews from The Society’s permanent collection and "California: This Golden Land of Promise", an exhibition of landscape paintings on loan from the Irvine Museum. Other notable exhibitions include "From Ore to Opulence: California Silver in the Gilded Age", "Territorial Ambitions: Mapping the Far West, 1772-1872", and "The King’s Orphan: Drawings of an Early Swedish Visitor to California", all of which drew upon the museum’s collections that were amassed over the last century and a half.
