February at the St. Helena Library: The Wappo, the area’s indigenous people

We’re showcasing the Wappo people

As part of the ongoing celebration of St. Helena’s Incorporation, we’re showcasing an exhibit of the area’s indigenous people, the Wappo. They were peace-loving hunter-gatherers with a deep love of the environment that provided everything they needed. They lived off the land—the rich resources of the Napa and Sonoma valleys and Lake County. View traditional Wappo tools including arrowheads, mortars and pestles and tightly woven baskets.

The exhibit will be on display at the library through the month of February

Wappo artifacts are on display at the Heritage Center Museum, open the first Saturday of the month from noon-4:00.
