We're honored to support the amazing work of the Mt. Si Senior Center!

More local sponsors stepping up to the plate, and we could not be more grateful.

These businesses are the cornerstone of the Snoqualmie Valley, standing behind our seniors and investing in this community's strength

Because of them, senior services continue. Meals are served. Rides are given. Doors stay open. Lives stay connected.

It takes a village. This is ours.

When you support these businesses, you are standing with the people who stand with our seniors. That matters.

Thank you for showing up, for giving back, and for being part of something bigger.

Lisa DeBaets is one of the invited artists in our current exhibition featuring PNW artists. Shown is "Cascade Grandeur" and, according to the artist, "I start in play doing all kinds of marks, drips, and layers using different types of application tools that I like. This is one of two paintings in this diptych. They both gave me a feeling of a mountain landscape so I continued that feeling of misty mountains and sun."

Our beautiful new art exhibition of invited artists continues! Shown here is "Bashful" from Gloria Carmignani-Breslin. "This beautiful bloom gently unfolds to reveal its soft, gentle hues of lavender — a color symbolizing grace, serenity, and modest elegance. To me, flowers evoke an emotion, and this one whispers ‘Bashful.’" Be sure to come and see these pieces for yourself!

Our new art exhibition is a special showcase of invited artists working in a variety of work and media. Shown here is "Issaquah Shell" from Bill Koger. "This is my watercolor rendition of the historic Shell station on Front Street in Issaquah. In the forties it was known as the Hailstone Feed Store and Shell Gasoline Station. I eliminated a few things to simplify the composition but it is a faithful rendition of the building."
