Winter fest in Seattle Center is not limited to this weekend.
The highlight is the elaborate
train and village set, every year.
12/6, 12:30. Seattle Boys' Choir sang in Armory. This is just one group.
Interesting that the age of the boys in the advanced group and middle group seem similar.
The beginner group is definitely younger.
Every Saturday, an ice sculpture is carved outside of Armory.
12/6,
Northwest Iceworks chipped this whole thing in under an hour.
12/6-7,
Urban Craft Uprising at Exhibition Hall.
Many small craft shop selling their products every year before holidays.
Usually fun to check out. Here are a couple of funny ones.
I made a snowflake tree ornament at a craft session using some quick-set resin and golde+silver flakes.
12/6, 12:00-14:30.
Figgy Pudding Caroling.
I was late, only saw the final award and performance of the 12 days of Christmas by
Beaconnettes - my favorite.
12/6, 11:00-17:00.
Birds Connect Seattle hosts an open house, with a falconer showcasing his 2 birds:
Taita Falcon and
Eurasian Eagle-Owl.
Both non local, both raised from a baby, so they are quite domesticated.
There's a table with a few preserved birds that you can touch. Questions and answers.
7pm, Elliot Bay Books. A staged reading of Dickens' A Christmas Carol by Elijah Pasco.
He was very good, different voices for different characters. I really enjoyed it.
