  • Decorating the Blackman for Halloween

    It’s that time of year again! We’re getting ready to decorate the Blackman House Museum for October and Halloween, and we’d love for you to join us. Decorating last year was such a blast that we wanted to extend the invitation to all of our wonderful volunteers and interested members.

    We’ll be meeting on Sunday, September 27, at 3:15 PM -right after the museum closes.

    If you’d like to join in on the fun, please let us know and [Sign Up Here].

  • A cozy living room with a vintage green velvet sofa and matching armchair on a patterned rug. Behind the sofa, a large window with lace curtains decorated for Christmas with a window garland, bows, and ornaments. A decorated Christmas tree with lights, ornaments, and ribbons is positioned in front of the window. There are wrapped Christmas presents placed on the floor near the sofa.

    Parlour Tour

    Immerse yourself in the enchantment of our annual Historical Parlour Tour! Step inside a selection of historic homes, many showcasing beautiful Victorian architecture, all elegantly decorated for the holidays.
    Join us December 13th 2026, for an unforgettable afternoon.

  • Group of people participating in a pride parade holding a sign that reads 'Snohomish Historical Society.' The participants are dressed in colorful clothing, rainbow accessories, and holding pride flags, celebrating LGBTQ+ pride.

    Parades

    Celebrate local history with the Snohomish Historical Society as we take part in the Easter Parade, Pride Parade, and the beloved Kla Ha Ya Days Parade!

    We’d love for you to walk with us - everyone is welcome. Vintage attire and bicycles add to the charm, but it’s your presence that truly brings these parades to life. If you’d like to join in, reach out to mac@snohomishhistoricalsociety.org

“The streets are uniformly wide, laid out in a pleasing manner and are well tended. For the greater portion of the year, handsome, well-kept lawns and a profusion of flowers greet the eye upon every hand. Nearly all the residences’ lots are provided with fruit trees and ornamental shade trees.”
