This is a handicap accessible venue.

The historic First Presbyterian Church is one of Port Townsend's architectural masterpieces, and celebrated its 134th Anniversary in 2007.

The church has a unique Victorian sanctuary and one of the oldest pipe organs on the West Coast. The original church was built on this site in 1873, and the current building in 1889. It offers a beautiful site to view fashions that would have been the norm when the building was constructed.

Costumes and dresses from private vintage and reproduction collections will be modeled. The Jefferson County Historical Society Museum will also have on display Victorian clothing from the Society's collection.

Admission is by donation and will be gratefully accepted at the door with all proceeds benefiting the Jefferson County Historical Society's Scholarship program.

Handicap accessible venue.
