Description

Our major project is the renovation and restoration of the Lincoln Grade School in Port Angeles, where we hope to establish a museum that will become a true hub of our community, a research center and gathering place for all who have a love of history and a desire to preserve it. We also want to make it possible for all of the school children in Clallam County to visit our museum and learn more about the history of our area. Our fundraising efforts revolve around these two objectives.

History

Collections include more than 10,000 historic photos, vintage clothing, tools and utensils, newspapers and ledgers,oral histories, and other archival material.
