The past year was an exciting one for the Cortes Island Museum and Archives Society. Volunteers worked on many projects and were especially proud to add a video display created by James Delorme from Klahoose First Nation to our permanent collection. The natural history of Cortes was an important focus with the displays created by Hans Trettin on geology and Christian Groneau on fossils. The extensive research contained in these exhibits has been compiled into booklets and will also become part of our permanent collection. The social history of Cortes was featured in a pioneer demonstration garden and display created by Jill Milton, Donna McLaren and Maryann McCoy, as well as in an exhibit celebrating the 20th anniversary of Hollyhock coordinated by Martha Abelson.
