"OUR TOWNS"
- A Look at Island County’s History -
This special exhibit, which will be located in the museum’s main gallery, will take the visitor on a journey through Whidbey Island from the mid to late nineteenth century until the present day, chronicling the rich and diverse history of our island’s town and communities. 
Photographs, maps, pioneer diaries, oral accounts, and historic items from the museum’s collection are just a few of the things that will educate visitors about Whidbey and take them from the early days of settlement to the present day of mass transit and the internet.  Mini “rooms” have been created within the museum using furniture and other items from the collection which have not been seen by the public for a very long time.  Some of the areas to be highlighted are Clinton, Maxwelton, Bayview, Langley, Freeland, Greenbank, Coupeville, San de Fuca, Oak Harbor, and Deception Pass.   We believe that this will be one of our most informative and exciting exhibits to date .
 Whidbey Island Bank has sponsored this exhibit
with a generous contribution.
