West Seattle Sunday: Typewriters, tunes, theater, ‘Catsino,’ & more

(Common finch, photographed Friday by Ryan O’Keven)
An eclectic lineup of possibilities for your Sunday – including, from the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar:

‘BIG BLUE SUNDAY’: This is not just any old Sunday for Northwest Center’s Big Blue Truck donation dropoffs in The Junction. It’s “Big Blue Sunday,” with a focus on clothing donations (though they’ll take everything else they usually accept, too) and some special incentives 10 am-2 pm as part of a regional drive. More here. (44th/Edmunds)

WEST SEATTLE FARMERS’ MARKET: The further we get into spring, the more vendors return, and you’ll find more “new” offerings today. Produce, meat, fish, cheese, cider, baked goods, wine, nuts, flowers, more, 10 am-2 pm. (44th/Alaska)

‘RIBBON AND RHYME’ TYPEWRITER ART: 1:30-4:30 in the Delridge Branch Library meeting room, it’s your first of five local chances this month to “try out vintage typewriters and create a bit of spontaneous art,” as a friend of writer/artist Lauren Ziemski explains (she has deployed them in open-air installations like this one photographed by The Seattle Times [WSB partner]). More info here. (5423 Delridge Way SW)

    That little finch – what a photograph! And a day brightener. Thank you! He looks a little indignant: “Hey, flower, you’re more colorful than me, but can you fly?”

Sorry, comment time is over.
