The Swedish Cultural Center is a meeting spot for Scandinavians in Seattle, Washington. It was founded in 1892, initially as the "Swedish Club". The club is located at 1920 Dexter Avenue North in a building designed by architects Einar V. Anderson, Arden Croco Steinhart, and Robert Dennis Theriault Sr., and built 1959-1961.[1] Prior to that they were located in a 1902 building on Eight Avenue by contractors Otto Roseleaf, August S. Peterson, and Otto Rudolf Roseleaf.[2] The club hosts a number of events for members and non-members. Among their public events are a monthly pancake breakfast[3] and a Friday Kafé;[4] their Friday evening "happy hour" (which actually runs for 5-1/2 hours) is open to "prospective members".[5] They also offer Swedish lessons and show Scandinavian films.[6] Notes1. ^Swedish Club #2, Seattle, WA (1959-1961), Pacific Coast Architecture Database, University of Washington.
