Seattle Center...

…with its’ iconic Space Needle is recognizable to people worldwide. The Seattle Center has become the community meeting place for people from around the world who now call the Puget Sound area home.

Throughout the year there are currently a total of 22 ethnic groups sharing their rich and diverse stories with us. These FREE cultural events celebrate a national history, allowing some of us to remember and others to learn. Come and celebrate the wonder of brilliant national costumes, traditional foods, songs and dances from around the world. Learn about the crafts and customs from those who know them best. There is always something to keep the kids entertained, whether it is the special children’s activities or the jaw dropping dances or other activities being preformed.

The good folks at Seattle Center have scheduled major events for almost every weekend of the year. During the week take time to check out the less explored areas of this 74 acre entertainment center located in the middle of Seattle. Do not forget the food court for a quick nosh or a ride to the top of the Space Needle for a bird’s eye view of Seattle and Puget Sound and while up there, why not enjoy a sumptuous lunch or dinner with that view.

Rain or shine, summer or winter, The Bearded One and I always enjoy going to the Seattle Center, just the two of us or with friends and do not forget that much of this is FREE for the enjoying. Plan to go often.
