Believing that history inspires imagination, stimulates thought and transforms society, the Los Altos History Museum preserves and shares our local history to enrich our community and to shape a more informed future. Located in one of the last orchards in the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (as Silicon Valley was called when it led world agriculture, as we do today in technology), the Los Altos History Museum is a cultural oasis with a historic house and state-of-the-art museum surrounded by lush gardens, just one block from historic downtown Los Altos, California. San Jose Mercury columnist Steve Yvaska nailed it when he wrote "there never seems to be a dull moment at the Los Altos History Museum." Over 21,000 people a year find their way to this top-rated local history museum for its superior permanent exhibits, innovative programs, fun special events, curriculum-based school tours and a dynamic schedule of award-winning changing exhibits. The Museum provides educational opportunities for visitors of all ages to learn about the community via interactive exhibits and hands-on activities aligned with Museum objectives. Guests enjoy orchardist J. Gilbert Smith's 1905 Craftsman house furnished in the time of the Great Depression and interactive outdoor agricultural exhibits like a restored tractor kids can climb on. Other programs include third and fourth grade curriculum tours for local school children, annual essay contest, lectures, workshops, oral history collections, a traveling Ohlone kit, and much more. Opened in 1977 as a community museum, this family-friendly place is open FREE to the public, thanks to community support, Thursday through Sunday, noon to 4pm. Come visit!
