Folio: The Seattle Athenaeum

Mission

Folio: The Seattle Athenaeum connects a dynamic literary community through a curated book collection, diverse programming, and opportunities for engaging conversations and transformative ideas.

Description

As we celebrate another notable year at Folio we are heartened by your presence and engagement in growing a vibrant  community together. This year marks a very special milestone for all of us at Folio: our upcoming 10th anniversary. Thanks to patrons and supporters like you, what started as an ambitious vision for a vibrant literary community has blossomed into a thriving reality!

Your GivingTuesday gift today will help us write the next chapter of Folio's story as we prepare to enter our second decade.

We are proud to approach this milestone in a position of strength. Your trust and support have been fundamental to our financial stability, helped us expand and deepen our programming, and created a cherished space for hundreds of readers, writers, and thinkers. 

Our Board of Trustees has guaranteed a $15,000 match for all gifts made through December 2nd. Securing this match unlocks $30,000 in vital funding to power our work. Your gift this GivingTuesday will go twice as far in supporting our mission into the future, keeping our programs accessible and our conversations flowing.

Thank you for partnering with us in building a home where curiosity, creativity and connection thrive. We quite literally could not have done it without you.
