La Conner is all about love. It started with the love of a husband, John Conner, who named the Skagit Valley town for his wife, Louisa Ann Conner.
Today, it continues with the love of its 780 or so residents for their town's historical and geographical charms. La Conner honors its past, through archival photos, preserved buildings and museums, just as it fosters its present and future, with public art, cultural events, and creative shops and boutiques.
