The Stranger

Have you ever spent a Saturday night at the top of the Space Needle, drinking fine booze, talking about art, and dancing to soul music with people who read books? No? That is all about to change. Tonight, The Stranger is invading the Space Needle with Satellite, a benefit for the Genius Foundation, the nonprofit that gives out $5,000 Genius grants to five local artists every year. But it’s not one of those insanely expensive benefits—a $35 ticket gets you hors d’oeuvres, two stiff drinks (cash bar thereafter), and four hours of fun, art, and dancing at the top of the Space Needle, with Emerald City Soul Club and J-Justice spinning. A $75 VIP ticket gets you all that plus unlimited drinks in the Cosmonaut’s Lounge, with talks and performances by past Geniuses. (Space Needle, 400 Broad St, strangertickets.com, 8 pm–midnight, $35/$75 VIP, 21+) by Christopher Frizzelle
