Renowned jazz musician Dmitri Matheny and his all-star band will present a free Mother’s Day Concert at the library on Sunday at 2:00 pm as part of Matheny's 2014 Tour of 100 cities throughout the United States, including dozens of Pacific Northwest appearances.

We are so proud to begin our 25th year of bringing fabulous farmers and incredible cottage businesses to Anacortes.

Washington State Department of Transportation crews and drivers waiting at the gates celebrated at noon Thursday, as the North Cascades Highway reopened just a day before the annual ‘49er Days Celebration in Winthrop.

Anacortes has built two roundabouts, including this one where Highway 20 turns onto Commercial Ave., to improve traffic flow and reduce accidents, but other communities have found they are also useful for creating places for pedestrians.

The state has agreed to fund cleanup and removal of this floating houseboat-like structure which landed recently on the beach at the south end of Deception Pass State Park.

The City has earned a WellCity Award from the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) Employee Benefit Trust for the 11th consecutive year.
