In 1994 a group of guitar players and other musicians gathered in Seattle to create an open musical community. In 2001, after seven years of growth, this community has formed Seattle Circle, a nonprofit corporation.

The purpose of the Seattle Circle is to develop and promote appreciation in music in the Puget Sound area through education, workshops and music events.

This will be achieved by providing a professional facility in an educational atmosphere for the enhancement of skills in the field of music, by providing instruction on both the individual and group level and by presenting the results of our work to the general public through performances, workshops, and presentations.
