Urban Walking Adventures: Walk into the Past

We’ll take 3 Walks into the past! The October walk will be from the Julia Morgan- designed Chapel of the Chimes Columbarium through the elegant Mountainview historic cemetery in Oakland. In time for Halloween, we’ll learn about local historic figures interred there. In November we’ll explore the Rosie the Riveter museum and WWII Home Front National Historic Park to learn about the war effort, and significant social changes and cultural shifts necessitated by the war. We’ll enjoy beautiful marina views from Richmond. Lastly, in December we’ll head out from Encinal Beach in Alameda to walk past harbor seals, the USS Hornet, to the Seaplane Lagoon, once a site of flying boats.
