Fairhaven's "Underground" Museum
Yes it is true, Fairhaven does have an "Underground" Museum.
It is located in the basement of the Fairhaven Pharmacy building. It's curator is one of the former pharmacist there, Gordon Tweit, who is also the unofficial historian of Fairhaven, and a wealth of knowledge.
The museum is open by appointment only and is a random collection of all things Fairhaven, ranging from a large collection of Salmon Cans from Fairhaven's former glory days as a cannery town, to old pharmacy products and doctors instruments. There are also pictures of Fairhaven's past and old stereoscopic slides of the early days of Fairhaven.
It is a fascinating look at some of Fairhaven's past.

Hey Michael... I never knew there was an Underground Museum... I spend a lot of time in Fairhaven (mainly because we like to do runs starting at the Village Green going out toward Bellingham through Boulevard Park. Very Cool... Thanks for the Blog!
