Funding Secured for ALUV Community Center Feasibility Study!

Earlier this year, we wrote about the need for an Aurora-Licton community center. We are happy to report that $150,000 was granted for an Aurora/Licton Springs Community Center feasibility study as part of the Seattle 2020 City Budget.

You can join ALUV in celebrating this win (along with many others) on Thursday, December 12th from 7PM to 8:30PM at Lantern Brewing. Find the Facebook event here.

More Art in Licton Springs

You may already be familar with the Light Bulb Bench and Big Tesla located around the Seattle City Light North Service Center building but earlier this month, two new art works were dedicated by Seattle City Light and the City of Seattle Arts & Culture.

The two pieces “Undulating Currents” and “Licton Flow”, located on N 97th St, were created by renowned artist W. Scott Trimble and commissioned with the City Light 1% for Art funds administered by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture.
