SEATTLE CHINESE GARDEN SOCIETY

SEATTLE, WA

The Seattle Chinese Garden Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Chinese culture and art through the creation and maintenance of a traditional Chinese garden in Seattle, WA. The garden is located within the South Seattle College campus and covers 4.6 acres, featuring a collection of authentic Chinese architecture, horticulture, and art.

The society was founded in 1988 by a group of Seattle residents who were inspired by the beauty and cultural significance of Chinese gardens. They worked with local and international experts to create a design that would reflect the principles of Chinese garden art, including balance, harmony, and the integration of natural elements.

The garden includes several distinct areas, such as a central lake with a pavilion, a bamboo grove, a scholar's courtyard, and a rock garden. The garden also features a variety of plants and trees, many of which are native to China, including lotus, bamboo, and pine.

In addition to maintaining the garden, the society offers educational programs and events to promote Chinese culture and art. These programs include classes in calligraphy, brush painting, and Tai Chi, as well as cultural festivals and events.

Overall, the Seattle Chinese Garden Society is a unique and important organization that helps to preserve and promote Chinese culture and art in the Pacific Northwest.
