The Senior Center of West Seattle has been working on a new name, as noted when we shared their call for mural artists back in March. Now they have it – and they’re about to reveal it, at this Tuesday’s annual fundraising breakfast. The event is sold out, but the center plans to publish the new name online Tuesday morning too (and we’ll have it here). You’re also invited to visit the center on Tuesday (and beyond) to find out more – and the nonprofit’s update on all this includes:

There’s also still time to support the Senior Center’s annual fundraising campaign. The nonprofit’s goal is to raise $50,000 between now and the end of May to fund the essential services they provide in our community—like meals, classes, lectures, support groups, counseling, digital navigation, and more.

You can help with that by going here. P.S. We’re expecting to hear an update about the mural Tuesday, too.

What’s in a name? That
which we call a rose,
By any other name
would smell as sweet.

Seems like such a waste of time and money. Will anyone ever call it anything other than “the senior center?”

…..said by someone who doesn’t know the whole picture. It’s not just the name, it’s a new vision and one that will save it from losing momentum in changing times.

Elder Centre? Everyone who lived in West Seattle for decades still calls it Westwood Village instead of Westwood Town Center or whatever it was renamed. Chief Sealth instead of Chief Sealth International. Half of the city probably still calls the baseball stadium Safeco Field. I get what you are saying.

Sorry, comment time is over.
