Artist Wendy Red Star spent Friday morning setting up Tableaux Vivant: Nature’s Playground in Volunteer Park. This weekend’s little piece of the Seattle Art Fair designed for selfies with “an imagined wilderness of assorted hunting decoys” joins a menagerie of good times in the month ahead in one of the sunniest Seattle summers ever.
Happy August. Here’s what else is lined up for your selfie enjoyment:
Seattle Night Out — August 4th: Not only is it Primary Tuesday but the 4th brings 2015’s Seattle Night Out parties to the streets of Capitol Hill and beyond. Here’s what 2014 looked like. There is still time to register for 2015 here.

Capitol Hill Garage Sale Day — August 9th: The 2015 edition of the annual community garage sale day brings some changes. After moving the community lot to Cal Anderson last year, in 2015 we moved the entire day to a new part of the summer — Sunday, August 9th will be the start of a new era for Garage Sale Day. Have fun. There’s still time to register at capitolhillgaragesale.com.

^ These pants, to be precise ^
Summit Block Party — August 22nd: A Capitol Hill block party the way Dog intended it. The Summit Block Party continues to grow — and continues to be free and totally grass rooted. 2014 was a kick in the pants.
