From 1998 through the year 2000, the California Gold Discovery to Statehood Sesquicentennial will inaugurate an unprecedented series of educational programs, cultural experiences and family events that will help us rediscover the spirit, people and promise of our California communities through the Sesquicentennial annual themes. The symbol of the California Sesquicentennial consists of a bright star and three radiants. The yellow star reflects California's sunlight, its golden history and its glamour.
All elements combine in the festive, celebratory symbol.
The wordmark powerfully integrates the numbers of California's one hundred and fiftieth birthday with the state's magical name, in a single, visually striking graphic device. All Rights Reserved.
