The South Lake Union Block Party is the largest festival focused on celebrating and showcasing our neighborhood with:

Community Booths: This year’s Community Village will feature more than 60 businesses and organizations in the area, between noon and 6 p.m.

Local Beneficiary: Proceeds from the Block Party benefit local organizations doing important work in the community. This year’s event, which is co-sponsored by Amazon.com, will benefit Mary’s Place. The local organization empowers homeless women, children, and families to reclaim their lives by providing shelter, nourishment, resources, healing and hope in a safe community.



Call for donations! Mary’s Place is hosting a Back to School event for their families on September 1. They’re getting hundreds of kids ready with school supplies, backpacks, clothes, shoes, haircuts, school pictures, school registration, and more - and they need our help! From 12-6 p.m. you can drop off donation items at Mary’s Place’s booth at the South Lake Union Block Party. They’re looking for donations of the following items:
