2016 Theme: "Traditions and Stories that Celebrate Your Ancestry"
The Los Altos Historical Commission and the Los Altos History Museum are co-sponsoring the 32nd annual Margaret Thompson Historical Essay Contest, open to third- through sixth-graders who live in the area and/or attend local schools.
The Los Altos History Museum's current exhibit, “Spirits Return: Cultural Traditions Keeping Memories Alive,” highlights how human beings all over the world follow traditions by which they honor and celebrate their ancestors. Traditions and stories help us stay connected and cultivate a sense of identity and nurture values of family loyalty and pride.
