Share history with those you love.
From Creamery to community — Santa Clara’s story unfolds across generations.

Some stories live in buildings. Some live in the people who came before us. And some we carry in our hands — a ring, a photograph, a memory that refuses to fade.

Santa Clara’s history feels that way to me. A place where past and future meet in the middle of Franklin Street, where the Creamery’s old marquee still whispers, and today’s sidewalks open toward what’s next.

Sharing this history is my way of honoring the women who shaped my path and inviting others to see their own stories reflected here.

Here’s to continuity, courage, and the quiet threads that hold us together.

Our virtual tours make Santa Clara’s story accessible for everyone — perfect for family and friends to explore together.

The Franklin Street Christmas tree tradition in Santa Clara was inspired by a desire to foster community spirit and provide a central location for downtown holiday celebrations.

: "Behind every building is a story. Our heritage guide scripts uncover the people and events that shaped Santa”

The clock that graces our City Hall holds a special place in the community’s history. In 1920, a resident donated the clock as a tribute following the passing of her husband. This meaningful gesture not only honored her husband’s memory but also provided a lasting gift to the city, serving as a symbol of generosity and remembrance for generations to come.
