Annual July 4th Celebration and Bell Ringing
About this Event
Join us for the Petaluma Museum's annual July 4 community celebration featuring live music, local history, refreshments, and the ringing of the historic Korbel Bell.
This year, inspired by the US 250th anniversary and our exhibition The Fabric of Democracy: Quilts and the Power of the People, we invite the community to gather in a spirit of reflection, connection, and belonging. Just as individual pieces are stitched together to create a quilt, our community is strengthened by the many voices, stories, and traditions that unite us.
The morning program will include performances by local musicians and choirs, participation by Petaluma's Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, and remarks from community leaders. The celebration culminates with the ringing of the historic Korbel Bell thirteen times in honor of the original colonies—a beloved Petaluma tradition since 1962.
After the ceremony, guests are invited to enjoy lemonade, cookies, mimosas courtesy of Korbel, and an opportunity to ring the bell themselves.
Whether you're a longtime attendee or joining us for the first time, we welcome you to celebrate community, history, and the many threads that connect us.
