Mission Statement
As a nonprofit organization with deep roots in Seattle's civic life, Town Hall's mission is to serve as a common home for dozens of Seattle's mid-sized nonprofit organizations.
Description
Town Hall is Seattle's community culture center offering a broad program of music, humanities, civic discourse, and world culture events. Local, national and international programs and performances are scheduled year-round in the Great Hall and Downstairs at Town Hall. Many of Seattle's fine cultural and civic organizations use the facility for a busy schedule of concerts, lectures, meetings, and fundraising events.
Town Hall also rents space to many individual users, from small meetings of 40 to full-building, multi-floor events for 1,000. It is fully accessible. Assisted listening devices are available upon request.
Town Hall's name recalls town-meeting democracy and is emphasized by the intimate, curved, amphitheater-style seating of the Great Hall.
Town Hall is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and relies on rentals, membership, volunteers, and fundraising to sustain its many activities.
