Event
Free for All: Celebrating Ten Years of Town Hall
Imagine an entire Town Hall season rolled into one rich, raucous day, and you're at our tenth anniversary Free for All. Every hour (more or less) on the hour, our two stages will host local musicians, writers, thinkers, and civic leaders in programs drawn from across the wide expanse of the Town Hall calendar. The day includes a debate between King County Executive candidates; a family concert by Caspar Babypants (Chris Ballew, of The Presidents of the United States of America); acclaimed violinist Quinton Morris and Friends, playing Mozart and William Grant Still; short stories of and by emigrants, read by Lesley Hazleton and Lyall Bush; science historian George Dyson, with his acclaimed consideration of the kayak; and a Global Rhythms concert featuring the thundering drums of Seattle Kokon Taiko. Light food and drinks will be available for purchase throughout the day in our new cafe space. Come for a taste, or stay the whole afternoonand celebrate ten years of programs that reflect and inspire Seattle's highest aspirations: toward creativity, empathy, expansive thinking, and an ever-stronger community.
All events are free, but advance registration for each event is requested at www.brownpapertickets.com. Late seating not guaranteed.
