Historical Museum

Buy any Skagit County Historical Society publication and get one of lesser value at half price.  Great Holiday gifts!  And lots of other great gift ideas for all ages in the Museum Store.

Want to be a part of preserving and sharing history? How about teaching children history through games and interactive displays? Or are you more organized and willing to research artifacts from long ago? If so, we have an interesting opportunity for you. Spend some time with our curators, collections specialist at the museum and socialize at special events hosted throughout Skagit County.

We are flexible and offer projects from one day per week to one day per month. Although our museum is open to the public Thursday – Sunday, our friendly volunteers show up a variety of days and times. Complete the form below and expect a follow-up email from us to schedule a quick telephone interview.

• Volunteer Application

Beginning March 12, 2022, masks are optional in the Museum, but are welcome.  Masks will be required in the Research Library for scheduled research appointments due to smaller space.   Thank you for your understanding and cooperation throughout the pandemic.

We are so excited to have people back in the Museum!

If you have questions, email museum@co.skagit.wa.us or call 360-466-3365.
