VIRTUAL FESTÁL HOLIDAY VIDEOS
This season, we celebrate the diversity of our Festál community partners in this Winterfest Virtual Festál series. You'll find performances, cooking and craft demonstrations and other holiday traditions presented in video form. Enjoy learning about seasonal traditions from around the globe! In partnership with Northwest Folklife, we kick things off November 27th with Our Big Neighborhood at Seattle Center Winterfest. New content will be added every Saturday in December, so come back frequently for more.
VIRTUAL STUDENT SHOWCASES
Seattle Center offers Student Showcases in order to provide entertainment as part of seasonal events, and to give public and private schools and youth performance groups the opportunity to share their artistic accomplishments with family, friends and the public. We invite you to participate in this Virtual Student Showcase platform, featuring video content from schools and youth arts training programs. Content available starting November 27th.
CAMPUS LUMINATA
We are keeping the annual tradition of decking out our campus alive with twinkling lights in the trees and other specialty light features across the grounds, including a special winter light display at Cornish Playhouse. Pop by Seattle Center after dark and delight in the wonderland of light!
