Tourism arrives on the scene to add a new layer to the traditional economies of farming, fishing, and services.

Please join us in honoring and remembering our community

We have created a beautiful outdoor space at the museum to remember our community. The six posts will hold three sizes of anodized aluminum plaques – black with silver print. Help us populate it with the names of loved ones – friends, family, ancestors, teachers, mentors, neighbors… anyone you would like to honor.
