Remember when the Vera Project announced they were going to attempt to raise a million and a half smackaroos to remodel and open their new venue at Seattle Center? That's a lot of dough—a lofty goal indeed. But the cash started flowing and Vera started construction on the new space last summer. Now there's only about $600,000 left to go, and their new venue (read more about it here), is set to open February 23. This is the final push, Seattle. Don't leave Vera hanging.
