Japanese American Remembrance Trail Tour (in-person)

In the early 1900s, Seattle’s Japantown —Nihonmachi — stretched from 4th Avenue South to 23rd Avenue South, a bustling enclave of family homes and independently owned shops, grocery stores, and entertainment venues. In the aftermath of Pearl Harbor came Executive Order 9066 in 1942, which forced all persons of Japanese ancestry into concentration camps – Nihonmachi never fully recovered. This walking tour takes visitors through the past and present Nihonmachi.

April 6 and 13

Redlining Heritage Trail Tour (in-person)

Though many believe Seattle as a liberal city, the history of redlining and the road towards open housing has been a long struggle. The history of redlining and the Civil Rights movement in Seattle is necessary as we continue to explore themes of gentrification and displacement as time goes on. Take a walk with us to hear the stories of home, and to celebrate BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities that are currently and were historically marginalized in Seattle.

TASTES OF THE CHINATOWN INTERNATIONAL DISTRICT

Tastes of Chinatown- International District was created by Vi Mar when the neighborhood was at a crossroads. After the Wah-Mee tragedy, the neighborhood faced negative stigma, perceptions, unfair assumptions about safety and the character of our neighborhood. Vi Mar knew that her community was so much more than how it was being portrayed in the media. Rallying folks around the food and flavors of the community she loved, she brought groups of folks to fall in love with the business and restaurants as well—creating food tours called Taste of Chinatown in 1985.

We are going back to our roots as we evolve our food tours to fit our current neighborhood.

This is a historic moment—the covid-19 pandemic—and our Chinatown-International District is still feeling the impact of anti-Asian hatred. While some restaurants we loved have closed, there is still a lot to love. We want to bring you into our neighborhood to taste, enjoy and find community while sharing our favorite dishes together.

*Vegetarian options are available. Vegan, gluten, soy, and nut allergies are unable to be accommodated
