About the Sutter County Museum
The Sutter County Museum, founded in 1975, preserves and interprets the history of Sutter County and the Yuba City area of California's Central Valley. Located at 1333 Butte House Road in Yuba City, the museum serves as the community's principal home for local artifacts, photographs, and stories.
As a county-supported institution, the museum offers free admission and works to remain accessible to residents and visitors alike, even as it navigates the staffing pressures of a public budget.

- Community programming including its seasonal Fun Fridays in the Garden events held on the museum grounds.
- Permanent collections documenting everyday life, agriculture, and settlement in the Sutter County region.
