The Museum of San Diego History presents the colorful and diverse history of the region, interpreting San Diego’s growth from pre-contact through present day.
Its core exhibition, Place of Promise: Stories of San Diego, contains interactive and fascinating artifacts, including a 1910 streetcar. The museum also offers exhibitions on Marston’s Department Store, the City’s premiere department store for 83 years, and 100 years of artistic identity through works from the region’s celebrated artists.
Participation in Museum Day is open to any tax-exempt or governmental museum or cultural venue on a voluntary basis. Smithsonian magazine encourages museum visitation, but is not responsible for and does not endorse the content of the participating museums and cultural venues, and does not subsidize museums that participate.
