The history of this land has been told in many ways. The glacially sculpted cliffs of Mt. Erie conjure time-lapses of generations of glacial movement, long before the feet of people touched this land. The stories of the Coast Salish people, passed down orally from parent to child, catalog history since time immemorial. Maps drawn by 18th-century explorers highlight distorted early ideas of what the region might look like from a bird’s eye view. These preservations and more paint colorful, but imperfect portraits of what our home looked like before it was called Anacortes. Photography, arguably more than anything else, has informed our historic idea of what Anacortes was and therefore, our cultural idea of what Anacortes is.
Our latest exhibit, The Photographers of Anacortes: A Developing Timeline, examines the history and evolution of this art form, whilst simultaneously examining our own evolution as a small sea-side community.
