The Sedro-Woolley Museum collaborated with the Port of Skagit and The Skagit County Historical Museum to present "Remembering Northern State Hospital: Public History Days." Click here to visit the NSH Public History Days website and learn about the event, Northern State history preservation, and ways you can share your stories, photographs, and artifacts.
Our newest exhibit features
the rich heritage of the Upper Skagit people. We had the honor of working with Scott Schuyler, member and elder of the Upper Skagit Tribe and the Tribe’s policy representative. He generously shared artifacts, stories, and knowledge with us to create a beautiful exhibit. Chainsaw carvings are a distinctive part of Sedro-Woolley. Make sure you get a photo with Sasquatch at the museum entrance.
