Historical Museum

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!

The Skagit County Historical Museum has received a Diversity in Local History grant
from the Washington State Historical Society. The grant will fund a part-time intern
for 9 months beginning in September 2022. The project consists of three parts:
• Developing a comprehensive written inventory of Native American artifacts
in our collection.
• Using our established Collection Policy, develop a recommendation on the
appropriateness of each item.
• Update labeling of artifacts in our Native American exhibit cases.

Successful intern applicants must be current undergraduate students, graduate
students, or recent graduates.
