Washington : Port Townsend
Port Townsend, Washington
The community of Port Townsend is as varied as the geography that surrounds it. From recreation in the Olympic Mountains to drama at the downtown theatre, the reflection of life here is both connected to the land and to the people. Discovery Bay, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Port Townsend Bay surround the city as it sits at the northeast end of the Quimper Peninsula. It is the seat of Jefferson County. It is an eclectic community of artists, long-time residents, boat folks and those looking to avoid the standard cookie cutter places to the east. The politics are contentious, because everyone is right, of course. The music and theatre scene are thriving, and there are many hidden gems in the visual arts, writing and poetry of the area.
Historically, PT was major seaport in the 1800's, and most of that eras' original architecture has remained. Port Townsend is one of only three Victorian seaports in the U.S. on the National Historic Register. Visit the Jefferson County Historical Society Museum and the Port Townsend Carnegie Library for more history of the area.
Besides an active historical theme, Port Townsend also combines the best of developing and established artists of all disciplines in presenting workshops, events, Gallery Walks, October's Art in Port Townsend juried art show and year-round festivals. You can never have enough art you know and PT is considered one of the best small-town art communities in the nation.
