Notice - Seattle’s 2020 Irish Festival has been CANCELED. That includes all festival activities at Seattle Center Armory on Saturday, March 14, and Sunday, March 15, as well as the Saturday, March 21 Irish Genealogy Workshop “Putting the Gene in Genealogy”  that was to take place at Fairview Christian School in Seattle.  

Reminder - the SGS board decided to close the SGS Library physical facility at 6200 Sand Point and to cancel all meetings and gatherings of our membership held there until 30 March 2020. The facility is not being closed due to any known contamination, but rather as a pro-active move to avoid possible person-to-person transmission of the virus. 

Many organizations may be canceling their activities. It would be prudent to check with organizers on the status of an event before heading out. 

The Seattle Genealogical Society recommends you check our website or watch your email in-box for the eNews! for status updates on our events.
