"Capturing Los Gatos" and "Traps, Maps, and Money Belts": Two New Fall Exhibits at the History Museum of Los Gatos

The two new exhibits highlight photos and artifacts from The History Museum and Los Gatos Public Library collections.

 The Hooked on Los Gatos photo project began in 2003 in an effort to preserve and make accessible the photos and archival documents of the Los Gatos community. In Capturing Los Gatos, Museum visitors will have the opportunity to view historic images of Los Gatans over the past 100 years, many of which have not been published outside of the online project website.

 Traps, Maps and Money Belts features common and unique artifacts from The Museum Collection that tell a story about different eras and people in Los Gatos history, including anti-prohibition banners from a controversial 1908 town election.
