Welcome to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition Community website!
The A-Y-P Exposition Community website is a virtual gathering spot for organizations working on projects related to the 2009 commemoration of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition. The A-Y-P Exposition was held from June 1, 1909 to October 16, 1909 on what is now the campus of the University of Washington in Seattle. More than 3.7 million people visited the exhibits. In 2009, heritage organizations in Seattle, King County, and Washington State will present exciting projects that tell the story of how the 1909 event changed the course of local history and influences the region today.
The A-Y-P Exposition Community website helps heritage organizations share information, request help, and learn about the progress of peer organizations’ projects. We invite you to browse our list of organizations with A-Y-P centennial projects and survey the projects each organization is developing.

Larry Kriesman, who's working on the Arts and Crafts Movement in the Pacific Northwest Traveling Exhibit with the Museum of History & Industry, asked me to post this in the "We Need" section of his project listing: "Seeking regionally designed or produced Arts and Crafts period fine and applied arts, furniture, books, photographs and ephemera in private and public collections. Items exhibited at the Lewis and Clark or AYPE expositions, in local galleries, or made in schools or workshops are of interest." |

Daniel Kerlee of www.aype.com (not us, aype.org) writes that he is regularly adding material to his website and hopes to be able to share information with as many persons and organizations as possible. He notes that he's a "one-person, part-time operation," but he's doing amazing things at his website. Check it out! He wants to help any organization that needs a hand.
