Capitol Hill Happy Holidays Card 2025

For this year’s holiday card, CHS turns to 19th and Aloha and an installation of joy at St. Joe’s.

The St. Joseph Parish added the display this year on its lawn near another relatively recent addition — the “community fridge” the church’s Faith Justice Commission and the community keep stocked and open for those in need.

You can maybe think about the wooden reindeer and trees and lights the same way — stocked and open for those in need. Stop by and pick up a little bit of community joy.

CHS, by the way, is also taking some time this week to pick up a bit of joy where we can find it. If there is something we should know about, call or text (206) 399-5959 or say hey @jseattle here or here. You can also check in with neighbors in the CHS Facebook Group. Thanks for reading.

Look! Joy on E Union, too
