About the event

Join us for our 135th Annual Meeting as we celebrate more than a century of history beneath one remarkable roof!


Doors open at 9:30 AM with a light breakfast, followed by our Annual Meeting featuring board elections and organizational updates.


We’ll then move into our featured presentation, beginning with local historian Nancy Dulaney, who will guide us through the first 100 years of the Columbia Motor Co. Building — when engines roared, furnaces burned, and the building’s story took shape through decades of change.


Then shifting gears, Executive Director Katie McClure will follow with a preview of what’s ahead, including how this historic space continues its transformation as the future home of the Rainier Valley Historical Society.


We’ll close with a special site visit inside the building!
