Events
Due to the current Governor recommendations and Sacramento County restrictions, it is with great disappointment we announce that all Galt Area Historical Society events are cancelled through October, 2020. This cancellation affects all gatherings.
Thank you for being a Society member or guest and supporting our functions. More importantly, thank you for understanding the circumstances we find ourselves in. Our goal is to have safe activities for you and the public.
We look forward to business as usual, as soon as this situation subsides. Be safe and take care.
