The special display at 409 Pacific Ave., arranged by the volunteer Bremerton Centennial Historical Committee, aims to pack in visitors during the 53rd annual Armed Forces Salute and parade this weekend. After that, the display effectively will close up shop for the summer, reopening in time for Labor Day Weekend's Blackberry Festival. The pictorial history includes hundreds of items donated by local residents, the city, Kitsap County Historical Society and Bremerton Naval Museum.
Admission is free.
An adjoining gift shop offers shirts, hats and other memorabilia commemorating the city's centennial, with proceeds benefitting the Bremerton Centennial Historical Committee.
