Marcella and Gary Gulmon are spearheading the initiative to create a permanent fairgrounds history museum at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds, showcasing its 80-year legacy.
The museum will be established in the 1949 State House Replica, celebrating not only the county's fairgrounds history but also honoring San Jose’s brief tenure as California's capital.
The Gulmon family’s commitment to collecting and preserving the fairgrounds history underscores the importance of understanding our agricultural roots, transitioning from the Valley of Heart's Delight.
Creating this museum will provide a year-round facility to appreciate our rich agricultural legacy, a significant aspect of the region’s history before it became Silicon Valley.
