Who we Are and What we Do
We are followers of Washington State Pioneers devoted to preserving their legacy in the form of a museum of artifacts and genealogical records.
Our objectives are:
Promotion of historical, literary, and social intercourse among its members; and, to record and
publish such facts with brief biographical sketches of pioneers for the information of
future generations.*
*Excerpts from the Agreement of Intention to form a corporation, dated 28-August 1895
Today, we maintain Pioneer Hall and the collections within. We need help in documenting the lives
of early residents. Contact the Historian for information.
Operating Year: May 2025 - April 2026

Pioneer Hall & Meeting Info
We invite you to visit Pioneer Hall at no charge during any Open House -- please see the Events Page for details. Special tours are available upon request and staff availability.
Pioneer Hall is located on King County Metro Route #11. From downtown Seattle, travel 30 minutes over Capitol Hill, then down to the waterfront at Madison Park. The bus stop on 43rd Avenue at Blaine Street is just a few feet from our front door.
The Annual Membership meeting and salmon bake is held in June, while General Membership meetings occur in March and October, all at Pioneer Hall. Kindly view the Events Page for details.
