The Mission of the Shoreline Historical Museum is to serve the public by preserving, recording, and interpreting the heritage of the historic Shoreline area (85th to 205th, Puget Sound to Lake Washington) and its relationship to the surrounding region. The Museum’s service area includes the cities of Lake Forest Park and Shoreline, and the neighborhoods of North Seattle, such as Sand Point, Wedgwood, Lake City, Licton Springs, Northgate, Broadview and Haller Lake. The Museum, through its activities, provides cultural, historical and educational benefits for all, and opportunities to gather as a community.
