Discovery Park

This exhibit is intended to capture aspects of the past and present of Discovery Park located in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. The park as a landmass has a long history in the colonial imagination, but this exhibit will focus primarily on the history post-military installation. This exhibit acknowledges the efforts and contributions of key figures and peoples who helped Discovery Park become what it is today, and reflect on the current use of the space. A special emphasis will be placed on the history of Discovery Park as it pertains to the Indigenous peoples of the land we know as Seattle.
