Jefferson county - incorporated in 1852 - is located on the Olympic peninsula spanning from the Pacific coast to the Puget Sound.
With a large portion of the county occupied by national park & forest land, and bookended by coast, the folk arts of the county represented in the collection highlight the region's connection to lumber and water.
