Storytime at the Bellevue Botanical Garden

A storytelling event featuring Nathan Abia Lawer-Yolar, Arrived Collective, Elissa Gibson, and Ashley Robinson at the Bellevue Botanical Garden on August 7th at 5 p.m. It's a chance to hear stories read aloud while surrounded by 53 acres of gardens, woodlands, and wetlands—basically a book event that happens to have better scenery than most libraries.

Recurs: first Friday of every month

Lineup

Nathan Abia Lawer-Yolar
Nathan Abia Lawer-Yolar is a Ghanaian-born imagemaker, filmmaker, writer, and curator living and working in Seattle, WA. His practice is an act of witness — to tenderness, to Black life, to the quiet architecture of family. He works in homage, in conversation with art history, reaching backward to honor what was made before so that what comes next carries its weight.
