I called to ask if I could return one of the two tickets that I had bought for an event. The person on the phone told me that someone would call me back later. The next day I got a message saying that both of my tickets had been refunded. When I called back they gave me a ticket for free. So, I came away pretty happy.

Fabulous night with Ijioma Oluwo at Town Hall. Unity event put on by rhe Office of Civil Rights. Awards for 3 community leaders. Super chill event, wonderful appetizers before performances by Josephine Howell and others. Super chill inclusive and welcoming environment...and it was noticeably different as I have been to many events there. Remodel looks great too. Still ongoing construction on the outside so parking was a bit of a challenge.

Good place to be on top of nowadays situations in the community or choose your are of interest from many presentations and event they have there. Parking may be an issue as anywhere else in Seattle. Arrive earlier if the event is scheduled during the busy hours.

Accessibility is great except for uneven lighting and heavy doors. It's got a chair lift for interior stairs. Scheduling interpreters for an event was a breeze. Coffee counter is wheelchair accessible.

lovely venue with a variety of educational events from across disciplines. I love the "feel" of it, with it's wooden church pews and well let stage, which fits perfectly with any of these events. typically beer wine coffee and snacks are available for a reasonable price

The preparation for Kathryn Bouton's presentation ...

The preparation for Kathryn Bouton's presentation on September 15 was an embarrassment to the presenters, Ms. Bouton and Mike James and to the audience. If the intent had been a real time demonstration of the difficulties hearing impaired people endure, the presentation was a great success. Why would you put Ms. Bouton, who is profoundly deaf, on stage to answer questions with no provision for her to hear the questions?
By the very nature of the topic, the audience was largely hearing impaired folks so it was especially important that the presenters receive a bit of instruction on proper use of the microphones. The instructions on proper use of the microphones came from one of the questioners.
The Town Hall acoustics are terrible even for folks of "normal" hearing and presenters proper use of microphones is thus important for all of the audience.
As a Town Hall member, we all owe Ms. Bouton an apology; her frustration was palpable and as our guest we owed her graciousness.
Town Hall and its mission is an outstanding venue and the staff can do much better.

A friend and myself viewed a documentary on Maria Tallchief a Native American ballerina to be a prima ballerina. It was a full house. You can see some videos of her on youtube. The producers are trying to educate the public on well known female Native American women other than Pocahantas and Sacajawea, which are told inaccurately. This facility allowed this film to be shown there.
