In June, museum guests are invited to watch and learn different sewing techniques used by ladies who lived in early Sacramento. Each guest can will then have the fun opportunity to apply what they learned to make their own hand-made doll or coin purse to take home.

The Sacramento History Museum is proud to introduce and offer monthly Second Saturday Living History Day activities both inside and outside the museum located along the Old Sacramento Waterfront. With always-popular and free gold panning activities happening outside the museum on Second Saturdays, games of chance and special hands-on crafts will be offered inside the newly-renovated Sacramento History Museum. Plus, Living History characters in period attire will roam inside and outside the museum to entertain and engage with interested guests.
