The San Mateo County History Museum will be open without admission fees on July 1, 2022, as part of its continuing “FREE First Fridays” program.  The Museum is located at 2200 Broadway within the 112-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.  Docents will lead a tour of the Museum for adults at 2 p.m.

The Museum will also continue its “Online FREE First Fridays” offering that day.  Preschool children will be invited to learn about surfing.  They will decorate a paper surfboard.  Then Museum staff will conduct a reading.  Youngsters will hear the story Surfer Chick.
