If you go to the beach, Chris reminds you by sharing two Alki photos with us – the one above and this even-trashier one – PLEASE clean up after yourself. Meantime, here are some of your options for today/tonight – starting with stargazing, weather permitting:
PERSEIDS METEOR SHOWER: Our “Skies Over West Seattle” contributor Alice Enevoldsen talked about it in her most recent contribution – and tonight’s the biggest night. West Seattle is not a great place to view it, though; read what she has to say, here.
No precise time on that – unlike the following:
WEST SEATTLE FARMERS’ MARKET: Under way until 2 pm. What’s new today? Market managers report: “Welcome back Foraged and Found Edibles with morels, chanterelles, and elderberries! Also, first day for River Farm’s delicious roasted peppers!” (44th/Alaska)
ARTS IN NATURE FESTIVAL: Day 2 at Camp Long for the Nature Consortium‘s big event! Our photos from Day 1 are here; the festival schedule is here. (5200 35th SW)
LOG HOUSE MUSEUM: Perfect day to visit and explore West Seattle history. Noon-4 pm. (61st/Stevens)
DOLL WORKSHOP: Create hand-stitched dolls during a noon-4 pm workshop at Twilight in The Junction. Details here.
ALKI POINT LIGHTHOUSE: You’re running out of chances to tour the 100-year-old lighthouse before the summer season ends! It’s only open 1-4 pm weekend afternoons through the end of this month. (Where Alki Avenue/Beach Drive meet)
‘GUYS AND DOLLS’: 3 pm is the first Sunday matinee performance of Twelfth Night Productions‘ “Guys and Dolls” at the West Seattle High School Theater; details in the listing. (3000 California SW)
‘ONCE UPON A MATTRESS’: Cheer for the young performers in the final performance of this summer’s ArtsWest conservatory production, 3 pm, details in our calendar listing. (4711 California SW)
EARTH CARE CONCERT: At a private garden in The Arroyos – but hurry up and buy your ticket, because that’s the only way to get the location. 3:30 pm.
EAT FOR EQUITY: Check to see if tickets are still available for this fundraising dinner tonight at West Seattle’s Chaco Canyon Café, 7 pm.(38th/Alaska)
Check our calendar to see what else is up today/tonight/next week, and far beyond!
