The Museum of History Benicia (MoHB) hosted the opening of a wonderful new exhibit on Saturday, February 7th. Celebrating the country’s 250th anniversary, the exhibit features an overview of how Benicia has contributed to our national history. It includes creative displays and information showing the various immigrant cultures, artists, newspapers, and industries including agricultural, shipyards, tanneries, and the refinery. At the request of the MoHB, the Society created a display about Benicia’s railroad legacy, which remains visible in the train depot and pier at the end of First Street. The Society is grateful for the opportunity to participate. A large enthusiastic crowd attended the opening. The MoHB, located at 2024 Camel Rd., is open on Fridays and Saturdays from 1-4pm and has free admission.
