The Downtown Issaquah Association is upcoming events. Downtown’s charm is established yet new, attracting locals and visitors of all ages. Now well over 100 years old, Issaquah is what Seattle once was, in bite-sized pieces. Issaquah values the patina of the well-worn and finds no conflict between the two.

Issaquah’s annual activities, such as its renowned art and history, place importance on a wholistic experience and discovery. Unearth the meaning of entrepreneurial spirit ,and find limitless, fresh possibilities. Depending on COVID restrictions, we offer entertainment, walking tours, and opportunities to savor the beautify of local art, Issaquah Creek and “The Alps.”

Come and see for yourself.

Open Mic Night began about 15 years ago, and Bob Brock came onto the scene as a participant. He and Lee Haro started managing the gig in 2012. It returns on the first Wednesday of every month, starting July 7 from 6:30-8:30.

“I think open mic helps promote music in the community as part of the effort to promote all forms of art, Bob said. “It offers a chance for folks to gather and play music as well as developing new musical friendships. We try to foster our open mics as an opportunity for beginners, intermediate, as well as advanced performers to play. Young and old and all in between are welcome. ”

Bob said the Historic Issaquah Train Depot is the perfect venue. “It has great ambience and allows us to focus exclusively on promoting music and musical friendships.”

Artisan Market at La Piazza Through September 25th
