Preserving Fire History
In response to the 2017 October firestorms that ravaged much of the North Bay region, the Museums of Sonoma County have launched The Sonoma County Fire Project. The Fire Collection gathers firestorm related objects and documentation. From those materials the museum will develop permanent curated exhibitions to commemorate our shared experience. The Fire Wall invites members of the Sonoma County community to share their stories. The Fire Wall includes artwork, photographs, drawings, poems and more. You may search by keywords such as name, zip code, neighborhood, or artistic medium. To contribute to these projects, go to:

Artist, Susan Cornelis contributed her watercolors sketches to The Firewall.
