What Is the Vashon Heritage Museum?
The Vashon Heritage Museum is a showcase of history from Vashon and Maury Islands!
What Makes It Wonderful?
The Vashon Heritage Museum dates back to 1907 when it was a Lutheran church for Norwegian immigrants! Today, it archives pieces of Vashon Island’s history and culture from the sx̌ʷəbabš Coast Salish to the logging industries to its current natural state with photos, mineral samples, and a native plant garden! When I was there, they also had a special exhibit on the LGBT residents of Vashon Island!
