Sutter's Fort Presents "Hands on History" Event on Saturday, 5/19!

Sutter's Fort Presents "Hands on History" Event on Saturday, 5/19!

Continuing a popular series of interactive and fun “Hands on History” activities, Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park will present a special “Hands on History: How Did John Sutter Expect to Make Money?” event on Saturday, May 19 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m..

Fort visitors will learn how John Sutter engaged in a number of business ventures in an effort to achieve financial success.  In fact, Sutter even gave away land and a start in the ranching business to any family that could make it to California!  On this special day, Fort guests will receive replica pages of original Fort ledgers -- including the famous John Bidwell ledger -- that shows what items were for sale and at what price in the early days at Sutter’s Fort.  Similar to the writing on the ledgers, Fort visitors will have the hands-on opportunity to try their hands at early writing techniques using a quill pen.
