Dixon Historical Society

Mission Statement

The Dixon Historical Society strives to protect, preserve, and promote the history of Dixon and its surrounding areas by honoring its first inhabitants, the Wintun (Patwin) native peoples, the Spanish/ Mexican/Californio governance of this area, along with the pioneering families and various cultural groups who later settled here. We are a 501C3 membership-based organization that contributes time and resources to collect, interpret, and sustain local history. We provide community and school outreach through museum exhibits, presentations, special events, and research in order to ensure a legacy that will enrich the lives of present and future generations.
