And with over 65,000 fascinating historical artifacts in our collection, we have a lot of catching up to do to show them off to our community! With the goal of opening in 2021, the new, state-of-the-art, contemporary cultural heritage museum will be located in a historic building at Colby Avenue and Wall Street in downtown Everett’s cultural district.

Our Vision  is to build a dynamic heritage museum for innovative exploration and experiential opportunities for all. We envision a community space where lively discussions happen; where the audience is always engaged in new ways – and where everyone has the freedom to see, touch, and participate with our history. We draw on the strengths of the past, present, and future of our city and community. We will enhance the community by providing appealing and innovative cultural heritage programming; engaging both those who have an interest in historical preservation, as well as those who are new to the idea – and entertain them with original and unique programs and exhibitions highlighting our extensive and diverse collection. Our organization continues to work to evolve and preserve the permanent collection for present and future generations, as well as grow the idea of what a heritage museum is to the community it serves.
