HIGHLINE HERITAGE MUSEUM

Our mission is to collect and preserve the stories of the Highline area and its people through heritage, arts, and culture... The Highline Heritage Museum began when an organization called the Burien Heritage Society was founded in 1994. The Society soon merged with the Friends of the Highline School District and acquired their large collections relating to the history of the school district. Later acquisitions of the archives of The Highline Times and thousands of articles of local community history have made founding a regional heritage museum imperative. At that time the name was changed to "Highline Historical Society" to reflect the region that the several hundred thousand 3-dimensional objects, photos, slides, films, and documents represent.
