“Anacortes at 125” exhibit opens

Ever heard of a quasquicentennial? Well, Anacortes is having one on Friday, May 19, when the city celebrates the 125th anniversary of its incorporation. The exhibit, which opens on the official anniversary day,  details the city’s history from its boom days to today, as viewed through the lens of the city departments that have provided its citizens with both essential services (think water, streets, police and fire suppression) and enhancements to their quality of life (such as a library, museum, and parks and recreation). Location/Hours: 1305 8th Street; open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Sunday 1 – 4 p.m.; closed Monday.

About Photographer Steve Berentson

A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
