We are so excited to celebrate 10 years of Cascadia Art Museum this year!

Check out this to 2015, when construction was underway to renovate the space into the beautiful Museum that it is today.

Did you know? The building Cascadia Art Museum now calls home was originally a Safeway grocery store built in the 1960s.
