Seattle has one of the most diverse collections of street trees in the country (double the East Coast and triple the Midwest!). Join Taha Ebrahimi, the author of Street Trees of Seattle on a guided walk of the neighborhood around Washington Hall exploring both its history and its street trees. We will travel through the southern part of Cherry Hill and past what remains of the old Black Panther headquarters, stopping at notable street trees to learn more about them.

Note: This guided walking tour takes place outdoors and lasts between 60-90 minutes. This event is limited to 20 participants. Please use this page to reserve a free spot on the tour; limit 2 tickets per reservation.

This program is a part of the Seattle Art Book Fair (May 11-12, 2024 at Washington Hall). SABF is a free annual festival that celebrates independent publishing, book design, and books-as-art. Learn more
