In its second year, Ovation provided an industry recap of Seattle’s summer performance alongside the most current travel and tourism data.
The program also highlighted developments in the Seattle and King County arts communities, offering insight into how the hospitality and arts industries can collaborate to enhance the region’s vibrant visitor economy.
Event attendees enjoyed delicious food and drinks at a post-program reception that featured tables showcasing activities and attractions ideal for Seattle’s cooler months.
Each Ovation registration included a raffle ticket for prizes available from the organizations that will be tabled during the post-event reception. Raffle ticket purchases benefit ArtsFund.
