Mission Statement:
Old Sacramento is a living historic district. The Historic Old Sacramento Foundation’s mission is to convey the importance of historic Sacramento as a place that connects our past to our present and future.
Philosophy/Belief Statement:
Old Sacramento blends historical interpretation with commercial activities that are respectful of its significance as a National Historic Landmark District.
Program History:
The Historic Old Sacramento Foundation is an umbrella organization for several different historical programs. The Sacramento History Museum was founded in 1984 and seeks volunteers to train and serve as museum docents. The Old Sacramento Living History Program, founded in 1995, is a re-enactment program for the California Gold Rush. Volunteers who like to re-enact history are recruited to portray early Sacramento residents from the 1851 and 1853 city directories. The Underground Tour is a unique tour of the original level of the city that discusses the floods and raising of the streets in Sacramento. Volunteers are recruited to work alongside tour guides to take groups of patrons on guided tours of these areas. Volunteers that want less contact with the public are also recruited for administrative tasks including our library, marketing, sewing projects, mailing projects, and special events assistance. Volunteers for the Historic Old Sacramento Foundation serve an important, in fact vital role to the organization. Volunteers keep our doors open and the lights on.
