Children learning to pan for gold.
This interactive exhibit allows both children and adults to experience the gold panning techniques used by the prospectors of the 1840s and 1850s. Participants will learn about the challenges of the Gold Rush era from a museum docent as well.
This activity is an additional charge of $5.00 per person (for both children and adults).
