About Us
Step into Port Townsend, the City of Dreams, and immerse yourself in a frontier town that lives steampunk year-round. Throughout the 19th century the “Key City” was a town looking to the future. Electrified homes and railway, a sense of destiny, aspirations to grandeur…and then it all fell down. The city Time Forgot. But today you can visit one of 3 Victorian seaports in the US, a community dedicated to authentic oddity, eccentric art, and an eclectic vision that draws hundreds of thousands of guests every year.
The Brass Screw ain’t no Con. We’re our own wonderful thing. For one weekend Port Townsend is transformed into our unique vision of what a Steampunk Extravaganza should be: vintage aesthetics commingled with edgy 21st century art, music, and tech – all strapped together with brass.

Olympic Peninsula Steam
The Brass Screw Consortium is hosted and operated by Olympic Peninsula Steam (OPS), a public charity (501.C.3.).
OPS was founded to educate about the history of Port Townsend and the Pacific Northwest. That history is a rich component of life here and offers a unique opportunity to celebrate, learn, and grow. Over the years, we've come to realize we're about community and contributing to our home. OPS supports and sponsors a host of regional event throughout the year.
