The Pinole History Museum will enhance the preservation and collection of artifacts that represent Pinole history and culture. Museum exhibits and research opportunities will educate and inspire Pinole residents’ community affiliation and civic pride.
Presentations and exhibits will be technologically advanced as well. With a limited amount of space, the museum will utilize audio and video technology to enhance the static exhibits, and also create a virtual online museum so people can appreciate the city’s history from wherever they may be.
Pinole has a very interesting history. Interesting characters have lived and interesting things have happened here — and continue to happen here. Yet, there are Pinole residents, many of them first-generation residents, who know nothing about their city’s history, in large part because there’s no place for them to go to learn about it.
The archival documents and artifacts chronicling the city’s history currently reside in members’ garages and attics, subject to varying temperatures and moisture. Pinole needs a museum so people can visit to see our city’s history on display.
Many citizens share this goal. There is wide support in the city to preserve and protect the city’s heritage.
In 2005, the city moved the Faria House, a farmhouse built around 1880 and one of the city’s most historic and beloved buildings, from its location near Interstate 80 to downtown Pinole, in the hopes that a museum would be, located in the home. In 2016, the Pinole City Council designated it as a site for the Pinole History Museum. The museum’s board of directors is working with the Pinole City Council to fund the renovation of the Faria House and lease it to the museum.
The Pinole History Museum will be contemporary while being historical, offering a museum where visitors can walk through the city’s past into the present, and envision the future.
We are raising money to building our museum exhibits. To donate, please send a check to PINOLE HISTORY MUSEUM, PO Box 285, Pinole, CA 94564, or donate online at www.pinolehistorymuseum.org.
