The Swedish Club's annual Lucia Celebration is a cherished holiday tradition in Seattle, featuring a collaboration with the University of Washington Scandinavian Department. The event includes a traditional Santa Lucia procession with candlelight, Swedish Christmas carols, folk dancing, and festive treats.
