The Society of California Pioneers' exhibitions offer a window to the past history of California and the West. The Society maintains a rotating schedule of stimulating, cross-disciplinary exhibitions focused on California art, history, and culture. Highlights of recent seasons include Incompletely Visible: the Legacy of the Bay Area Missions, Good Prospects: Life in the California Gold Fields, and The Big Picture: Panoramic Views of California, all of which drew upon the museum's collections that were amassed over the last century and a half. We invite you to attend our current exhibition – and browse our past exhibitions as well.
