Kenyon Hall Cabaret
Friday February 10, 2023
Doors @ 7:00pm
Performance @ 7:30pm
A Drag Event for All Ages
 

Kenyon Hall Cabaret is a night not to be missed! The night will be filled with dance, song, games and chance to connect with community. The core of this group has big plans in bringing the Drag experience to the Kenyon Hall neighborhood. While many of those ideas and plans are under development the Kenyon Hall Cabaret is a great jump start to getting to know some Local Drag Artists who, through time bring you down the rabbit hole of Performance art.

AND - Catch some of the Queens next door at Locol prior to doors opening or during intermission for some mingling and fun!

Information from District 1 City Councilmember Lisa Herbold

When the Sound Transit Board adopted the preferred alternative for the West Seattle and Ballard light rail extensions last year, they requested additional study of options identified for potential cost savings, or other modifications. Sound Transit released these “further study” updates in late January. Here is the link to the West Seattle further study.

A 38 foot steel hull sailboat called the Skookum that was tied up just south of Salty's on Alki and apparently abandoned in October of 2022, sank after high winds buffeted it in November.

A Westside Seattle reader said, "I was kayaking over the top of it the other day and noticed a sign posted on the dolphin it was tied to.

The posting said the Department of Natural Resources is going to raise it on Feb 10th 2023.
