EVENTS
For the past 35 years, educational programming at Historic Seattle has evolved from a small number of programs planned quarterly, initiated by volunteers serving on a variety of committees and carried out with limited staff support to its current comprehensive year-long series of events.
These programs are developed by the Program Director and are carried out with assistance from volunteers. Since 1999-our 25th Anniversary year---Historic Seattle has prepared and mailed an annual program brochure describing meetings, lectures, events, and tours.
The 2009 program year is here and it's our 35th Anniversary --- January - December 2009.
