General Info

The Museum is working on a Master Plan to create a new museum concept for the next 15 years of sustainable operations. The Renton History Museum's mission is to preserve, document, interpret, and educate about the history of greater Renton in ways that engage diverse people of all ages. We offer exhibits that explore Renton's industrial, civic, and cultural past while showcasing our extensive collection of objects and photographs. The Renton History Museum also hosts spring and fall series of educational programs for families and adults. Museum memberships are available for anyone interested in the history of the area. The museum also operates a small research library open to researchers by appointment.
