Ed note: It’s wonderful to have our neighbor, Town Hall, recognize us and offer special discounts for the inaugural Writers Festival.
This weekend, we turn the page on a new chapter in our organization’s programming story. Town Hall’s inaugural Writers Festival, Volume 1: Humble Beginnings, will be a celebration of literature and all the ways it keeps us connected. The residents of Skyline have been invaluable neighbors in our community and it would mean the world to see you there. To honor this deep connection, Town Hall is offering all Skyline festival tickets for just $10 or half off VIP passes! Use the code FEST10 at checkout to access this exclusive discount. To sweeten the deal, you can have any books you purchase during the festival held at Town Hall and dropped off to you the following week!
Town Hall is honored to share our neighborhood with Skyline and we can’t wait to see you in our historic building once again.
On Friday, Sept. 16, Volume 1 opens with an invocation by Seattle’s Civic Poet Jourdan Imani Keith, followed by a keynote talk with Siddhartha Mukherjee, moderated by Ross Reynolds, on the incredible history — and the future — of cells.
Saturday, Sept. 17, join us for talks by Lan Samantha Chang, A.M. Homes, David Quammen, Oscar Hokeah, Leila Mottley, Joyce Carol Oates, and Ted Chiang, and stay for a nightcap with the hilarious Sloane Crosley. Come for all the authors, or just choose your favorites — you’re welcome to come and go as you please!
Saturday also features tasty food, $10 featured titles from our friends at Third Place Books (while supplies last!), live music by The Bushwick Book Club Seattle, and more. Take advantage of this special offer and surround yourself with the good company of curious readers just like yourself, here in our marvelous City of Literature.
