Our Mission: To honor and thank our Veterans and educate the Puget Sound community about the sacrifices our Veterans have made for our freedoms.

Thank you for your interest in our museum and our efforts to honor our wonderful veterans and thier sacrifice.

Our museum is NOT closing just yet but we have vacated our current space and we are trying to find a new home. SVM is seeking an organization, city govt, county govt, or group of DEDICATED people to take over the management of the museum. SVM's current manager has been doing it for 12 years now and it is time for someone new to step up and take over this noble cause. Don't let our veterans, who have given so much, be forgotten.

If we could find a 1000+ sq ft place, and money to pay that rent, plus hire a manager and at least one employee (to clerk the front desk and work on fundraising) we could survive. Approximately $120,000 would cover all of that. Eventually, this paid fundraiser should be able to cover the $120K and the museum would be self-sufficient. Our museum has been "grass-roots" since day one, translation "low budget". Our museum is at a crossroads where we need a lot of help: money , management, and a new location.

Our musuem is all-volunteer and has gotten by in about 650 sq ft space (plus storage needs) and about $12,000 per year for rent and expenses. Benaroya Hall, our past landlord, has been VERY wonderful to our efforts, but they needed our current space for more music education programs.

Please contact us at info@seattleveteransmuseum.org if yoy can help or know of someone who can.
