Stimson-Green Mansion
1204 Minor Ave
Seattle, WA 98101

Join us for a cozy evening of silent reading in this historic mansion! Bring your books, knitting, journals, sketchbooks, chessboard, or any other quiet activity and enjoy them in the quiet company of others. We’ll have live piano in our historic library and quieter spaces throughout the house. Find a place to sit amongst the antiques and spend the evening in quiet community with others.
We are thrilled to once again be joined by the Friends of The Seattle Public Library pop-up shop! Friends of The Seattle Public Library have been supporting The Seattle Public Library since 1941. Through programs, advocacy, and events they help keep The Library and literacy at the center of the Seattle community. Browse their awesome collection of book-themed goodies and support Seattle’s public library system with your purchase.
We’ll also be joined by Haunted Burrow Books, a pop-up bookstore in Seattle focusing on horror, fantasy, and other moody books! They’ll have a pop-up shop of thoughtfully curated books, just in case you forget to bring your own read.

Accessibility Considerations
For those planning to attend events at the Stimson-Green Mansion, we want to note some of the mobility challenges of this venue. As a historic home built in 1901, the Stimson-Green Mansion is ACA compliant but not ADA accessible.
There are stairs at each entrance. At the front door, the primary entrance to the house, there are six steps (with a railing) up to the front porch, followed by an additional step into the house. Once inside, there are three additional steps (with a railing) between the main event area and the bathroom.
If you have any questions about Mansion accessibility, please contact Public Programs Specialist Abby Armato at .
