📣 NEW EXHIBIT OPENING JUNE 9, 2026

The History Museum's latest exhibit, Ravenswood Remembered, opens June 9 in our rotunda, celebrating the students, staff, and enduring community spirit of East Palo Alto's Ravenswood High School.

Despite being isolated by the Bayshore Freeway and denied equitable resources during the era of segregation, Ravenswood became a vital sanctuary for a diverse community of Black, White, Japanese, Latine, Chinese, Filipino, and Polynesian students and faculty and built lasting pipelines to universities and the tech industry.

Come explore the 📸 photographs, yearbooks, and artifacts that tell this remarkable story.

On exhibit through October 18, 2026
Open Tue–Sun, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
