East Napa Walking Tour
Saturday, August 7th
10 a.m.-Noon
Just to the east of Downtown and the Napa River lies the East Napa neighborhood, old Napa’s “Little Italy” neighborhood. It has been home to many uses in its history, including a Mexican rancho, a riverside industrial district, a working-class Italian neighborhood, and Napa’s 20th century auto row. The neighborhood is still vibrant today, with charming historic cottages standing side-by-side with the modern landmark Oxbow School.

In partnership with Napa County Landmarks, the Society invites you to explore the area with Cindy Watter. The two-hour tour starts on the Third Street Bridge. Tour ends at the Oxbow Market. Light refreshments provided.

$5 for Napa County Historical Society & Napa County Landmarks members
$10 for non-members and free for students.
Reservations are strongly encouraged. RSVP to charlotte@napacountylandmarks.org or 255-1836.
