History Museum Continues Its FREE First Fridays Program on June 1, 2018

The San Mateo County History Museum continues its “Free First Fridays” program on June 1, 2018. Not only is admission free the entire day (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), but two programs are planned for the public without any fees. At 11:00 a.m., preschool children will be invited to learn about inventors. They will create their own craft stick robot to take home. Then Museum staff will conduct a special program within the San Mateo County History Makers: Entrepreneurs Who Changed the World interactive exhibit. Here the youngsters will hear the story, Counting with Robots. At 2 p.m., museum docents will lead tours of the Museum for adults.

The San Mateo County History Museum is located at 2200 Broadway within the 108-year-old “Old Courthouse” in Redwood City. It features exhibits related to the use of natural resources, suburban development, ethnic experience and entrepreneurial achievement on the Peninsula from the time of the Ohlone Indian through today. The Museum is open every day except Monday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The “Free First Fridays” program is sponsored by San Mateo Credit Union. Credit Union members will receive 10% off in the Museum Store upon showing proof of membership.
