Several years ago, we unveiled a fun, colorful booklet called Simply Washington, which highlights and explains many aspects of our great state.
Not being ones to sit still, we decided it was time to create a whole different look and feel to this publication, which is popular with teachers, students and tourists. We’re pleased to unveil the new and improved Simply Washington online! It’s available online here for free!
For the revamped edition, we’ve gone with slightly smaller dimensions than the previous SW, while adding more pages to make it a 56-page book.
Like its predecessor, this online book focuses on many facets of WA, from our history going back to pre-territorial days, to profiles on key figures in our state government, the basics of voting, and how laws are passed. We also have fun sections on our internationally renowned companies, agricultural and tech industries, plus sports, arts and entertainment, outdoor recreation and much more.
The new Simply Washington edition was designed and produced by Janet Lee, a recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Design, who volunteered her time and talent to create this wonderful new book.
Simply Washington is a great civics resources for students, WA residents and out-of-state visitors. All of the information is in the public domain, so it’s available for you and others to use as you wish! You can even print it out directly from our homepage.
We will be fundraising to produce a print version for schools.
