Support the California Museum

The California Museum, as a non-profit, relies not only on admission and school tours to operate, but primarily on the generosity of the community. And although it is located in the Secretary of State complex in Sacramento, we receive no state funding.

Members are the solid foundation upon which a successful institution is built. Your membership ensures the Museum can continue to produce new exhibits, plan exciting public programming and provide unique forums to discuss California's past, present and future.

Become a member today and support The California Museum at any level!
