The Bear Flag Museum
Sacramento, California

History, Library

The Bear Flag Museum is a nonprofit, virtual museum/library dedicated to collecting at one location all information about the California Bear Flag. Our hope is for the Bear Flag Museum to continue developing into a premier site for all information, art, images, textual materials, articles, links related to the California Bear Flag. Beyond growing the website's information and images, we hope to become a center for continuing research and writing related to the history of the California Bear Flag since 1846. We hope to become a significant resource for schools and teachers in the education of California students. Ultimately, we hope to create a physical museum for the California Bear Flag. The Bear Flag Museum was developed in the Fall 2006 and originally came online in January 2007.
