Seattle’s neighborhoods are rich with stories. “A Story Runs Through It” is a celebration of Seattle’s diverse communities through video storytelling. Residents are invited to submit short videos that tell a tale from their own neighborhoods and communities. This Next Fifty project aims to capture Seattle’s stories, engage and train communities in the art of film-making and build connections between neighborhoods. The submission deadline is Aug. 31. A free film-making workshop will take place 10 a.m. to noon, Saturday, July 14 at Seattle Center.
