Edmonds Historical Museum

Housed in a beautifully restored 1910 Carnegie Library building, the Edmonds Historical Museum has been preserving and sharing Edmonds and south Snohomish County history since 1973. Our upper level galleries consist of rotating exhibits, changing every 3-4 months, while the lower level gallery displays permanent information about Edmonds history.

Exhibits

The Edmonds Historical Museum, in partnership with Edmonds Floretum Garden Club, is presenting a new exhibit, “Deeply Rooted: Edmonds Floretum Garden Club 100 Years of Beautifying Edmonds.”

Organized in 1922 by Anna V. Bassett and other local residents, Floretum — which means the growth and the scientific study of flowers — has been beautifying Edmonds for a century. The Floretum Garden Club has been deeply rooted in the community and the exhibit showcases the history of the organization’s mission to provide educational opportunities to promote knowledge of horticulture, the art of floral and landscape design, conservation of natural resources, protecting wildlife, civic beautification and above all, the love of gardening, while honoring its charter purpose of beautifying Edmonds.

Participation in Museum Day is open to any tax-exempt or governmental museum or cultural venue on a voluntary basis. Smithsonian magazine encourages museum visitation, but is not responsible for and does not endorse the content of the participating museums and cultural venues, and does not subsidize museums that participate.
