A Petaluma tradition! Ring the historic Korbel Bell, plus see our historic bridal exhibit, share a toast, and make a wish for our country.

Each year since 1962, communities across the country gather on July 4th and simultaneously ring bells 13 times to remind us of the original colonies and founding of our country. The Petaluma Museum commemorates this annual tradition with music, history, and the ringing of the historic Korbel Bell. Following the ceremony, enjoy refreshments and community under the beautiful oak tree in the museum’s courtyard, and leave your wish for our country on our “wish wall.”
