If you've lived in the Pacific Northwest and ever wondered about the origin of those Jake the…read moreAlligator Man stickers, this is the review for you! Marsh's Free Museum is the legendary home of Jake himself (you can find him in the back). The shop is an absolute treasure trove of curiosities. It features a mix of your classic beach-town souvenirs alongside more "not-so-typical" fare, like unique books, sweatshirts, and even knives. If you have some spare quarters, the old-school mechanical games are a must-play! The service here has always been great, super attentive and friendly. As for value, some things are a little expensive, but they also have affordable stuff if you look hard enough. They are not any more expensive than any other shop in Long Beach. I always make it a point to stop here every single time I'm in Long Beach. Whether you're just starting your trek down the strip or looking for the perfect place to end your journey, this spot is a PNW essential.

What can I say other than this is a huge tourist trap, but in the best way possible? You know it's…read moregood when one of the exhibits has its own Wikipedia page (Jake the Alligator Man). There are lot of curios, from taxidermy animals to old orchestreons. A lot of the amusing displays are in the back and in corners. I would say if you have small kids to be careful bringing them in as it seems like there are a lot of delicate items, from the piles of beautiful seashells in the front, to the porcelain items in the back. It is such a fun and unique place to visit, and the best part is that it's free! Although you will definitely walk away having purchased something.

Patricia helped me discover the artist of a portrait my family acquired some time ago. I had very…read morelittle information to offer but she is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced in her field and was able to give me high probability of the artist based on the photographs I emailed her. Patricia was extremely responsive and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her and would most definitely work with her again in the future. I have a new appreciation of my portrait and will cherish it even more! Thanks Patricia!

Several years ago we purchased a 19th century oil portrait of an attractive young woman. The dealer…read moreknew only that it came from a family in mid-Missouri who thought it MIGHT be a work by George Caleb Bingham. We have tried on our own to prove or disprove that attribution, but it was Patricia Moss of Fine Art Investigations who answered the question, and she did it within a few days. Using her knowledge of Bingham and his known portraits, she compared and contrasted our portrait to those by him. Very kindly and in helpful detail, she said we do not have a previously unknown Bingham portrait. A number of itinerant artists traveled through the Midwest in the mid 1800s, and she will continue to look for a connection between our portrait and a specific artist. I have been very impressed with Patricia's knowledge and care and am so glad we found her! We still love our painting and are delighted to have an answer to our question.

This is a fun festival to attend. There are so many great parts about it, but the beer garden is…read morenot one of them. Sorry, lost a point for that. It used to be better but now they are limited and I feel that the area is not as fun as before. Let's talk about the festival.... The mascot is a Razor Clam! Yep, it is! Pretty funny. I actually go every year because I like when the town is booming and this seems to bring people out. Must dos are Chowder competition. You get to sample about 10 of them (2 oz little cups) and vote on your favorite one. It's fun when yours wins. There's free fritters but you only get a small piece (it's free) but it's fun seeing them make it. There's always a band playing. That's kind of fun. Booths, galore. One even had a mermaid in water once. I have seen the festival evolve. They got rid of some things but kept others and made others even better. What I do miss was the free items you would get if you visited specific stores. You would get a little booklet and if you visited one place, you'd get a magnet, if you visited another place, you'd get a key chain, another, you'd get something else. It made it fun to check out different places in the area. Again, it's worth going to and just enjoying everything... Oh, and the best part is that it takes place on a clamming day so before all this, you go clamming bright and early so it doesn't interfere with the festival. The festival even offers razor clamming lessons. I have never gone, but for those who don't have someone to teach them, it's probably worth checking out. April 2025

Now...I am torn writing this review. Many Yelpers have hidden gems, Things we'd rather keep to…read moreourselves...but, because I won't be going in 2015 and I want to see this event keep going, I will post a review. Hopefully I'll be there in 2016. Long Beach, a town of less than 4,000 souls on a windswept peninsula in Southern Washington opened its doors in April of 2014 inviting seafood lovers and nature lovers to come and visit. I would say the event was a success as I heard one visitor say all the hotels in town were full. Small town, homespun hospitality. The website for the event was: http://longbeachrazorclamfestival.com/ Events included razor clam digging lessons, clam chowder cook off and beach clean up, but most of all it was an opportunity to kick back and cool our heels and eat at many excellent restaurants. We even had some rain which was refreshing coming from drought plagued California. The city of Long Beach does have other events Their city website and calendar is: http://www.longbeachwa.gov/ Or try http://www.funbeach.com
