LeMay – America’s Car Museum proudly presents The Birth of the American Supercar, a groundbreaking exhibition guest curated by renowned automotive innovator Steve Saleen. This one-of-a-kind display invites guests on an exhilarating journey through the evolution of American supercars. From early speed pioneers to cutting-edge modern marvels, visitors will experience a stunning lineup of vehicles that have redefined engineering, speed, and style, built by a wide range of American automotive manufacturers like Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Saleen himself, and even some more obscure ones like Vector, Cunningham, and Hennessey. From roaring V8s to sleek carbon-fiber bodies, discover how American automakers pushed boundaries, challenged European rivals, and redefined what a supercar could be. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to see some of the most thrilling and historically significant American-made performance vehicles ever built—all under one roof.

Bellevue Chamber Chorus' Ben Luedcke, Artistic Director presents:

First Concert of 42nd Season – "A Season of Light, Love, and Peace"

Experience the holiday spirit as the Chorus joins with guest instrumentalists to present works by Pavel Chesnokov, Michael Praetorius and Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, as well as modern arrangements by Dan Forrest and Healey Willan. Highlights include the ethereal "Lo How a Rose E'er Blooming" by Jan Sandström for double choir, aurally depicting the slow opening of a rose. Holiday favorites include arrangements of "Silent Night," "Deck the Halls," "White Christmas," and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." The evening culminates with the powerful “Illuminare” by Elaine Hagenberg. Using lesser-known sacred Latin, Greek, and English texts, Elaine Hagenberg's piece teaches us that although darkness may overwhelm, light will always be restored and illuminate a path to peace.
