Columbia Communities: Moses Lake Introduction

This web site extends a project initiated by the Center for Columbia River History and funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities from 1995 through 1997. The project assisted museums in Moses Lake, Washington, and Sandpoint, Idaho, to create traveling exhibits that explored the essence of their community’s history since the building of the big dams on the Columbia River. The U.S. Department of Education provided funding to create the web site, adapted from the original exhibit produced by the Adam East Museum in Moses Lake.

In the pages that follow, Moses Lake residents, through reminiscences, stories, and photographs, introduce you to the history of their community.
