[Field Trip] Treasure Island Museum
Join us for a docent-led tour of the Treasure Island Museum in historic, WPA-muraled Building One. Learn about the island’s fascinating past — from the splendor of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition to the courage of African American sailors who challenged injustice after the Port Chicago disaster — and see how Treasure Island is being reimagined for the future. Organized by OLLI's Member Engagement Committee.
