Let’s face it: We couldn’t pull any of this off without our superhero sponsors. Get a peek at these generous souls, and give them a pat on the back in person tomorrow!
Major Sponsors

In-Kind Sponsors
Ray’s Boathouse
We’re so fortunate to have scored this amazing venue! Have you seen the views from Ray’s?! We know you’ll love it. Ray’s has been extremely generous and accommodating – we couldn’t think of a better partner for Twestival Seattle.
A Seattle icon since 1973, Ray’s Boathouse, Café & Catering is internationally renowned for its unparalleled Northwest seafood and breathtaking waterfront view of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Ray’s Boathouse is comfortably elegant, serving refined sustainable seafood, local meats and produce, and an extensive list of Northwest wines nightly. Ray’s Cafe is lively and fun, serving casual regional fare for lunch and dinner, with seasonal outdoor dining and a popular Happy Hour twice daily. Ray’s Catering offers professional full-service catering and a beautiful waterfront banquet room that is perfect for social and corporate entertaining.
Anacortes Brewery
Wondering who you can thank for the frosty beverages you’ll be enjoying at Twestival Seattle on Thursday? That would be the Rockfish Grill and Anacortes Brewery (
@Rockfish_Grill). Co-owner Rick Star has generously donated a keg of their Pilsner, which you can imbibe on Thursday, using your complimentary Twestival drink ticket.
The Anacortes Brewery has an extensive
list of beers including, but not limited to, the
Mai Oh Maibock named in honor of the late Mariners announcer Dave Niehaus. You can find Anacortes Brewery’s suds at a number of
Seattle establishments, so keep your eye out or stop in for a bite (beer ice cream anyone?) and a pint next time you’re in Anacortes. Thank you
Rockfish Grill and Anacortes Brewery for your refreshingly malty donation!
Photographers
They’re no paparazzi, they’re pure artistes. We have two awesome volunteer photographers for Twestival, and we can't thank them enough for their generous gifts of time and talent!
They are
Amanda Howse Butler and
Danny Ngan. You can learn more about Amanda here: http://www.amandahowse.com/ and Danny here: http://about.me/dannyngan
Media Partners
Social Media Club Seattle
We’re extremely grateful that
SMC Seattle chose to partner with Twestival for this month’s official event. We’re also pretty psyched about the raffle item they donated: A “Golden Ticket,” which gives one lucky winner a year of free access to SMC’s monthly events!
