Visit this link to stay up to date with the museum and its events: https://linktr.ee/calautomuseum The California Automobile Museum offers plenty of opportunities for you to visit. Located just a stone’s throw from the famous “Old Sacramento”, and neighbors to the up 'n' coming Broadway strip, this museum is like nothing you’ve ever seen. You will not find this arrangement of cars anywhere else as the cars are either privately owned, museum owned, or hand chosen to be on display. Visit calautomuseum.org to see exhibits coming and going throughout the year. Classes & Group Tours: This all-ages facility offers an array of hands-on classes and stay up today on our big car themed events and trips! Although the California Automobile Museum offers free tours daily, scheduled group tours are always encouraged. If you have a group of 10 or more, schedule your date with our
Education Coordinator for special needs and undivided attention. Vehicle Donations & Consignments: The California Automobile Museum has an excellent Vehicle Sales department that wants the sale of your car to be successful. Our Vehicle Sales Coordinator will see the entire process of your car from listing it online, to showing it on the museum floor. Private Event Rentals: Rent out the California Automobile Museum for your next private event. Who would think that the auto museum would be the best place to host a party? We’ve seen it all; birthdays, fashion shows, brew fests, corporate holiday parties, anniversaries, and dog shows! Contact our Event Rental Coordinator for more details: [email protected]
