They curate exhibits at the museum and other community sites, bringing history to life for visitors. Furthermore, the Southwest Seattle Historical Society organizes a variety of programs throughout the year, aiming to foster community engagement through historical understanding. Beyond preserving the past, the society actively supports efforts to preserve the unique character of the community.
