Streaming Seattle: What To Do [Online] This Weekend

Although much of Seattle is on hold, there’s still plenty happening across the city. And while you may not be able to go out, you can still get involved with your community thanks to the internet! Streaming content from across the city is a great way to give our local artists and businesses some love while we’re taking a break from the bustle. This week, we’re highlighting some of the best things to do from the comfort of your couch.
