We Want Your Photos!

The Museum on Main is always eager to expand its collection of photography documenting the history of Pleasanton and the Amador-Livermore Valley.
We are particularly interested in photos taken earlier than 1970. 

If you have photos of local places, people, or events that you would be interested in sharing with us and with our visitors, contact curator Ken MacLennan by email (curator@museumonmain.org) or telephone (925-462-2766).  We can scan photos if donors prefer to keep their original prints.
