The Peña Adobe Historical Society will host Kid’s Day at the Adobe at the Peña Adobe Park in Vacaville, on Saturday, April 5, 2025 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Bring the kids and come see the historic Peña Adobe, one of the oldest structures in Solano County.  Dating back to 1842, the Adobe was once the home of the Juan Felipe Peña family who, with the Vacas, settled in Vacaville over one hundred seventy-five years ago.  Meet Darlene Peña Coombs, a 5th generation Peña descendant!  Visit the Mowers-Goheen Museum and see local artifacts that include a woolly mammoth bone!

There will be lots of fun activities, including face painting!  Make a corn husk doll to take home!  Our Native American Park Docents Armando Perez and James Tunstall will be speaking with park visitors of the Native Americans who lived here before the Peñas and Vacas arrived in the Lagoon Valley.

Location:

Peña Adobe Park is located at 4966 Pena Adobe Road in Vacaville’s rural southwest section, just off Interstate 80 to the left of Lagoon Valley Regional Park entrance.
