Join the Southwest Seattle Historical Society for their Annual Spring Gala and Live Auction on Friday, April 11 from 6 to 8:30pm at Salty’s on Alki!
Enjoy live music from local West Seattle band The Potholes, delicious food, and a cash bar. Meet and mingle with neighbors, supporters, history makers, and those who collect and uplift the stories of the Duwamish Peninsula.
Story Tellers: A Peninsula and its People celebrates the historical society’s vision for our ongoing interpretive planning and upcoming exhibition overhaul that will transform how people experience the Log House Museum. Celebrate with us as we announce details of a permanent, interactive exhibition planned for 2026 that connects the stories we tell to our visitor's waterfront experience, highlights stories of diverse placemaking across the Duwamish Pensinsula, and encourages visitors to explore regional heritage sites.
Special guests include exhibit designer and contractor, Chris Fiala Erlich, and our partners at Seattle Housing Authority whose youth Video Club is helping our historical society capture stories of High Point.
Get ready to bid! Our online auction opens Monday, April 7 through Thursday, April 10 - registration details coming soon. A selection of extraordinary experiences will be only available for our Live Auction at Salty's on Alki. Stay tuned for a sneak peek and get ready to bid to support local history
