Welcome!
The Squaxin Island Tribe welcomes you to our Home of Sacred Belongings! We raise our hands to you! We are greatly honored by your presence.

The Squaxin Island Tribe’s Museum Library and Research Center is the highlight of any visit to the South Puget Sound area. Here you will have the opportunity to learn the history and cultural heritage of this beautiful area from those who know and love every inch of it.

Upon entering our sacred home, you will be immediately struck by the loving connection between the People of the Water and the marine environment of South Puget Sound.

We hope you enjoy this small sample of what our home has to offer, and we look forward to meeting you in person! Enjoy!
