Fairgrounds Community Storytelling

Share Your Fairgrounds Memories!

Through the years, the Fairgrounds has provided a place for fun, learning, special occasions, refuge during crises, and a home to the annual 5-day Sonoma-Marin Fair. As we work to plan the future of this iconic Petaluma property, we want to hear what the Fairgrounds means to you.

The City of Petaluma, in partnership with the Petaluma Regional Library, invites the community to take part in a Fairgrounds Community Storytelling Exhibit. Now is your chance to submit photos, videos, voice recordings, and other art that captures your stories and memories of the Fairgrounds. Sharing your perspective will help capture the rich spirit and legacy this site holds.

Interested in sharing your story? Stop by one of our upcoming Storytelling Events! There will be recording equipment available to use, as well as arts and crafts materials if you want to paint, draw, collage, or even write a colorful poem!

Additional Storytelling Events take place on Sat. July 16, 10:00 am - 2:00 pm, Sat. August 6, 10:00 am - 2:00 pm, and Tue. August 9, 2:00-5:30 pm
