About Friends of Peralta Hacienda Historical Park
Friends of Peralta Hacienda Historical Park is a Fruitvale-based non-profit that runs the Peralta House Museum and provides school field trips, after-school and summer programs, volunteer opportunities, community parties and cultural events. The mission of Friends is to promote understanding, historical healing and community amid change and diversity, and to give voice to the many cultures that have created – and are still transforming – California. The park was once the headquarters of the 45,000-acre Rancho San Antonio, and the first European building in the East Bay. Today, the Peralta House Museum is full of five-senses exhibits about Fruitvale history. Pay a visit, and leave your story!
