The SJI Museum of History & Industry

Here’s an excerpt from the latest Historical Museum newsletter:
Work has begun on building our dream! The recent history of this project has been described in newsletters for some time. Now the vision is taking shape. Walls are going up, materials are being sourced and we are raising dust!
The last newsletter described the plans for creating a proper museum in our barn. It introduced the concept that San Juan Island developed through industrious work in the areas of fishing, farming, logging and lime.
If you have seen our displays at the Pig War Picnic and the County Fair, you know that we have followed up on that description. We have rolled out our image of the Museum of History and Industry and have also initiated the fund-raising program that will be needed to achieve it. Click here to read the newsletter (PDF).
