75th Anniversary Celebration: The Power of Global Engagement

Join the World Affairs Council for an evening of reflection, celebration and community. This milestone celebration will be held within The Spheres, part of Amazon’s urban campus, filled with thousands of cloud forest plants from around the globe.

Ambassador Ryan Crocker will deliver the keynote address. One of America's most respected diplomats, Ambassador Crocker served as U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Syria, Kuwait, and Lebanon over a 37-year Foreign Service career, and was later dean of Texas A&M's George Bush School of Government and Public Service. A recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Sylvanus Thayer Award, he will reflect on the World Affairs Council of Seattle's 75-year legacy of connecting our region to the wider world, the essential role the Council plays in fostering informed dialogue and international understanding, and why the Council is vital to civic life in Washington State.
