Join the Historical Society and special guest Governor Jay Inslee to celebrate the opening of recently renovated galleries in the Great Hall of Washington History. “Shaping a New World” explores Washington’s earliest history through geology, the Clovis people, The Ancient One (Kennewick Man) and more. In “Washington: My Home,” consider your personal story within the context of many diverse journeys to our state; true stories of immigration are told through audio narratives, interactive exhibits, and artifacts.

At 6:00 PM, hear from community partners and special guests, including Governor Jay Inslee, followed by the ribbon-cutting.
