Join us for a special boat celebration honoring 25 years of the Duwamish River Community Coalition (DRCC) grounded in community and advancing environmental justice.

Raise a glass, enjoy delicious local food, and take in the breathtaking views as we cruise Elliott Bay and the Duwamish River together.

For the past 25 years, DRCC has brought neighbors together, amplified community voices, and championed environmental justice, health equity, and opportunities for the Duwamish Valley. This milestone is an opportunity to celebrate the people, partnerships, and collective action that have shaped our journey and strengthened our communities.

Whether you've been part of DRCC's story since the beginning or are joining us for the first time, we invite you to celebrate this special occasion with an evening of community, connection, reflection, entertainment, and gratitude.

Together, we'll honor 25 years of collective impact and set sail toward the next chapter of building a healthier, more equitable, and more resilient Duwamish Valley.

&… THIS SATURDAY (August 8th) is our Duwamish River Festival from 12-5 PM

The Duwamish River Festival is a celebration of community, connection, and the shared vision we hold for the future of the Duwamish Valley. It brings together neighbors, families, youth, elders, artists, and community organizations to honor the river that has shaped our history and continues to connect us today.

At its heart, the festival is about people coming together across cultures, generations, and backgrounds to celebrate the strength, resilience, and diversity of our community. Through music, art, storytelling, cultural traditions, and hands-on activities, we create a space where everyone belongs and every voice matters.

The Duwamish River reminds us that we are all connected. As we gather along its shores, we celebrate not only the progress that has been made to restore and protect this important waterway, but also the collective power of community action. Together, we can build healthier neighborhoods, create new opportunities for future generations, and ensure that the Duwamish Valley remains a vibrant place to live, work, and thrive.

We invite you to join us in celebrating our community, honoring our shared history, and imagining a brighter future together. This year 2026 we also collaborating with SOPA SUPA - South Park Summer Party - Cultivate South Park! This will be an amazing party for the Duwamish Valley! We hope you join us!!
