This session will explore how psychedelic compounds like ibogaine, ketamine, and psilocybin may help interrupt compulsive cycles, uncover root causes of addiction, and support sustained recovery.

Featuring Dr. Nathan Sackett of the UW Center for Novel Therapeutics in Addiction Psychiatry, this conversation will examine how pairing psychedelic compounds with evidence-based behavioral interventions could transform the treatment of addiction. Drawing on his team’s cautious, research-driven approach, Dr. Sackett will discuss what’s known, what remains to be discovered, and how rigorous clinical study can help bring safe, effective psychedelic-assisted therapies to those who need them most.

]]> St. Vincent (SOLD OUT) https://townhallseattle.org/event/st-vincent/ Fri, 06 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000 https://townhallseattle.org/?post_type=tribe_events&p=68193 Annie Clark made her recorded debut as St. Vincent in 2007 with Marry Me, quickly becoming regarded as one of the most innovative and fascinating presences in modern music. Her subsequent albums would include Actor (2009), Strange Mercy (2011), her self-titled fourth album, and winner of the 2014 GRAMMY for Best Alternative Album. In 2017, her fifth album MASS EDUCTION would break St. Vincent into the U.S. and UK top 10s and win two more GRAMMYs (Best Rock Song for its title track, and Best Recording Package). 2021’s Daddy’s Home found St. Vincent channeling the hungover glamor and gritty sepia-toned soundtrack of 1970s downtown NYC to an ecstatic reception, ultimately winning her a second Best Alternative Album GRAMMY.

]]> Evelyn Iritani with Frank Abe https://townhallseattle.org/event/evelyn-iritani/ Wed, 11 Mar 2026 02:30:00 +0000 https://townhallseattle.org/?post_type=tribe_events&p=68378 Across the water from Seattle, you can visit the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Exclusion Memorial. It’s a place to honor and learn from the past. Evelyn Iritani, a longtime Seattle resident and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, wants to remember – and learn from – another, lesser-known story from World War II. In her book, Safe Passage, she reveals the dramatic, behind-the-scenes efforts to bring U.S. and Japanese citizens home from enemy land.

In 1943, during some of the Pacific theater’s bloodiest battles, the United States and Japan coordinated the exchange of civilians caught on the wrong side of the battlefield after Pearl Harbor. Nearly fifteen hundred Allied civilians trapped in Asia, mostly U.S. citizens, sailed through dangerous waters to India, where they were traded for Japanese immigrants sent from the U.S. The fate of the more than ten thousand U.S. civilians left behind in Asia rested on the success of this endeavor.

The songs may be born in Seattle, inspired by Seattle, or made iconic through Seattle films and stories—but the final setlist will emerge from your votes.

Choose the songs you want to sing on by voting here.

Your selections will directly influence what we learn, layer, and sing together in the room.

Town Hall is the perfect home for this gathering—a civic space where the people of Seattle come together to express who we are, where we come from, and how our stories keep evolving. This night becomes a shared act of remembrance and re-creation, sung by the city itself.

No rehearsals. No sheet music. No choir robes. Just a room full of voices, Seattle pride, and the soundtrack of the city we love—raised together in harmony.

You help choose the songs. We become the choir.

]]> American Echoes https://townhallseattle.org/event/american-echoes/ Sun, 15 Mar 2026 02:30:00 +0000 https://townhallseattle.org/?post_type=tribe_events&p=68374 Solstice Symphony Orchestra returns on March 14 with a FREE Saturday evening concert. This performance also marks the debut of Solstice Camerata, a new chamber-orchestra ensemble dedicated to repertoire written for smaller orchestral forces.

Admission is free; tickets are required.

Titled American Echoes, the concert will explore the “American sound” across time, space, and perspectives. The program opens with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Symphony No. 25, which was composed the same year that the Boston Tea Party took place in the US (1773), situating its urgency and unrest within a wider moment of philosophical and political upheaval. The program then turns to four unique American voices from different eras and backgrounds — Charles Ives, Florence Price, Caroline Shaw, and Aaron Copland — whose music engages with shared themes of doubt and devotion, inheritance and reinvention, intimacy and expansiveness.

Performed by a reduced ensemble in a chamber-orchestra setting, American Echoes invites close listening and rewards reflection. Admission is free and open to all; tickets are required and will be available in advance.

This program is supported, in part, by a grant from the Washington State Arts Commission.
