Every year, the SEEDArts Summer Series activates Columbia Park with free arts and entertainment for our community. All events are family-friendly, free, and open to the public. This program is a wonderful opportunity for Southeast Seattleites to engage with art, be entertained, and create connections.

Now in its 12th year, the Summer Series is a beloved Rainier Valley tradition taking place in Columbia Park, the living room of Southeast Seattle. Wednesday events coincide with the Columbia City Farmers Market.

See you in the Park!
