SF History Days takes locals, visitors way back
San Francisco has a cache of rich history, and this weekend, locals and visitors alike are invited to take a peek at what’s in the vault.
The Old Mint will host San Francisco History Days, featuring a pop-up museum experience that brings archivists, genealogists, archaeologists, educators, re-enactors, filmmakers and other Bay Area history buffs from over 75 organizations to the public.
Learn about San Francisco’s transit history, the city’s unique neighborhoods and stories behind public murals, and even get guided tours of the Old Mint, a branch of the United States Mint opened in the 1800s to serve the miners of the California Gold Rush.
