Site visitors can explore the experiences of Chinese, Latino/Californio, Native American, and African American peoples who participated in the Rush. Also included on the site are 28 images of artwork and 22 photographs of related subjects. Three audio narratives discuss details of the discovery of gold and the resulting massive westward migration. Sponsored by Kaiser Permanente, this virtual tour of the museum's exhibition offers an extensive (roughly 5,000-word) narrative of the Gold Rush and its history, illustrated with over 50 images of posters, photographs, artifacts, and art related to the Gold Rush. In commemoration of the 1848 California Gold Rush, the Oakland Museum opened a series of exhibitions and created this online companion site.
