Not far from the carnival rides and the hotdog stands, there's a room filled with art, culture, and living history.
Bernikoff is the first indigenous person to serve on the board. For her, this moment is so special that she decided to wear a sentimental piece of jewelry that brings tears to her eyes.
As she describes each piece of artistry on display, Bernikoff underscores the importance of having this exhibit at the fairgrounds.
The items on display represent the many tribes from across the state, including the local Miwok. Matthew Franklin is a member of that tribe.
Franklin and his family contributed personal items to the exhibit.
Also, at the exhibit is a red teepee with handprints representing the large number of missing and murdered indigenous people.
"I want you to be amazed. I want you to be educated. I want people who come here to also feel a sense of awe," Bernikoff said.
The California's First People Art Exhibit will also feature basket weaving demonstrations, and traditional songs and dances.
