This exhibit will feature items that the Ethiopian culture and community has brought into the Seattle area. From restaurant owners to surgeons, teachers to corporate executives, Ethiopian immigrants are contributing their experience and talent to the myriad of professions, social organizations, community groups, political parties, and regional institutions that define American culture. Indelibly marking this region's cultural landscape, the Ethiopian community has provided a much appreciated infusion of language, cuisine, history, dress, music, sports, art, laughter and life.
