Blaine visitor center displays historic photos

Posted

The Blaine Visitor Information Center on Peace Portal Drive is commemorating Blaine’s storied past with historic photos.

The city of Blaine gave the photos to the visitor center in October. They were printed at AMS Print on Grant Avenue. Blaine Chamber of Commerce executive director Sheila Wood said the photos are expected to be lasting artwork in the center.

“People can take a minute to check them out and look into Blaine’s history,” Wood said.

Photos include the Peace Arch dedication in 1921, the old Alaska Packers Association (APA) cannery on Semiahmoo Spit, and APA’s tall ship called “Star of Greenland.” 

The visitor center, 546 Peace Portal Drive, is open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 1-4 p.m. Sunday
