Learning From Historic Sites/Members Meeting: Eastside Heritage Center Winters House
July 27, 2013 |
The Eastside Heritage Center hosts Historic Seattle at the Winters House, built for
Frederick and Cecilia Winters, who came to Washington in 1906 and established a thriving wholesale floral business in Bellevue. Built in the late 1920s, this home was inspired by the revival of the Spanish Colonial style promoted at the Panama-California Exhibition in San Diego in 1915 and popularized in the Hollywood films of the next decade. In addition to seeing the house and learning about Bellevue from Executive Director Heather Trescases, Education Coordinator Jane Morton will take participants for a stroll along the boardwalk of the Mercer Slough Nature Park adjoining the property. After the meeting, take this opportunity to be on the Eastside to explore the outstanding Arts & Crafts booths at the Bellevue Arts Museum Fair at Bellevue Square.
