The 80,000-acre park encompasses a great diversity of cultural and natural resources in and around the Bay Area of San Francisco, California. It includes Muir Woods National Monument and Fort Point National Historic Site. The park holds almost five million three-dimensional and documentary artifacts dating from the time before European contact to the present. They are preserved and maintained for the public by the Division of Cultural Resources and Museum Management, which includes the Park Archives and Records Center (PARC). Park Archives and Records Center (PARC) Historical Note GGNRA and the sites within it have been collecting records since their inception. The PARC was established in 1994 to receive records and archival collections from the U.S. Army and the Presidio Army Museum after the closure of the Presidio of San Francisco as an Army base. The collections continue to grow through the donation of materials by private individuals, transfer of inactive park records by staff, and acquisition of relevant documentary materials. Scope of Collections The archival collections in the custody of the GGNRA document the history and activity of the various sites and groups associated with the park, described in the park’s Scope of Collection Statement (2009).

  • Presidio Coastal Trail Cultural Resource Survey
    Presidio Coastal Trail Cultural Resource Survey Background This survey was prepared at the request of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy to provide information on known and possible cultural resources along the Fort Scott bluffs in preparation for the design of the Presidio Coastal Trail. This trail will be a link in the statewide California Coastal Trail. The California Coastal Conservancy oversees the statewide implementation efforts for developing the Coastal Trail, and provides this definition of the trail: “A continuous public right-of-way along the California Coastline; a trail designated to foster appreciation and stewardship of the scenic and natural resources of the coast through hiking and other complementary modes of non-motorized transportation.” (California Coastal Conservancy, 2001.) A “Presidio Trails and Bikeways Master Plan and Environmental Assessment” (aka “Trails Master Plan”) was developed jointly by the National Park Service and the Presidio Trust for that section of the Coastal Trail running through the Presidio of San Francisco, and was adopted through a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) in July 2003. The Trails Master Plan identified improvements needed to the California Coastal Trail in order to upgrade the existing route to a multi-use trail with associated bicycle lanes on Lincoln Boulevard and supporting components, such as trailheads and overlooks. This 3 mile Presidio trail section travels generally along the coastal bluffs, following Lincoln Boulevard. 1 The areas west and south of the Golden Gate Bridge/Highway 101 are known to have been the sites of important cultural activities over the past 200 years associated with the military and civilian histories of the Presidio of San Francisco.

    G A L L E A Tribe of Artists: Costumes and Culture at Burning Man R is organized by the Nevada Arts Council, a division of the Y Department of Cultural Affairs. This exhibit is featured in the Nevada Touring Initiative Program and is funded by the National Endowment for the N Arts and the Nevada State O Legislature. T E S Front Cover: Elkhorn Girl, 2005–2006 Geoffrey Nelson Digital Photograph 24” x 48” Kitty Boy, 2005–2006 Geoffrey Nelson Digital Photograph 24” x 48” The Burning Man Art Festival is held over Labor Day weekend in the Black Rock desert north of Gerlach, Nevada. Drawing 50,000 participants from around the world, Burning Man is the largest art gathering held in Nevada and is known for its fire displays, sculptures, theme camps and its unusually attired participants. The event takes place on an ancient lake bed, known as the playa. Called “Black Rock City” this unique metropolis has a dress (and undress) code all its own. These outfits range from the minimal to extravagant, but all express the unique point of view of each participant’s creative vision. » Page 1 A Tribe of Artists: Costumes and Culture at Burning Man features photographs and mannequins documenting the costumes of Burning Man, and is based on an exhibit organized by Geoffrey Nelson for the Nevada Museum of Art in 2007. Nelson photographs Burning Man attendees in a portable, tent-like studio that he transports and constructs on the desert playa. The photos were primarily shot in a portable photographic studio set up at Burning Man events from 2005-2006.
