Chantey sings are held on board to add to the day's maritime spirit. Festival coordinators view the Adobe Fiesta as Founder's Day, which originated after the Petaluma Centennial in 1958. The Fiesta celebrates Petaluma's heritage by inviting visitors to participate in the activities of 1840's ranch life at California's largest adobe house. Weavers and spinners, lace makers. Quilters and craftspeople demonstrate traditional skills and visitors can try their hand, or take a self-guided guided tour of the displays and restored rooms at the Adobe.
Live animals are available for petting.
