Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park has been temporarily closed due to concerns regarding the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. As always, the safety and well-being of our visitors, volunteers, and staff is of the utmost importance and we are working with California State Parks to communicate any changes and/or disruptions that may take place due to COVID-19.

CURRENTLY POSTPONED EVENTS

Several Friends of Sutter’s Fort and California State Parks events have been postponed at this time. New dates will be announced in the coming weeks. These events include:

  • Hands on History: S.T.E.A.M. at the Fort
  • 19th Century Photography: Through the Lens of the Collections
  • Parent/Teacher Workshop for ELP/ESP
  • Shop Traders’ Faire
  • Tour by Chocolate
  • The Splendor of Germany: Tour of the Crocker Art Museum

YOUR SUPPORT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE

As a small 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, this closure will impact us tremendously. Your support over the next several weeks will be incredibly helpful in the wake of the park closure. If possible, please consider making a tax-deductible donation or become a Friends of Sutter’s Fort member in support of our efforts.
