History

SEATTLE CENTER FUND History Seattle Center Foundation (now Seattle Center Fund, or SCF) was founded in 1977 to administer and encourage charitable gifts, grants, donations, bequests and memorials to Seattle Center, a department of the City of Seattle.
Over the years, SCF supported favorites such as the International Fountain. SCF added beauty to the Seattle Center campus with the sculpture Olympic Iliad by Alexander Liberman in 1984, Moon Gates by Doris Chase in 1999 and the Fountain of Seseragi by Gerard Tsutakawa in 2000. SCF helped bring Seattle Center into the 21st Century by participating in the renovation of the Broad Street Green and raising over $3 million in private funds for the new Fisher Pavilion. The Fisher Pavilion project included public participation through a paver campaign that engraved names, quotations and children’s drawings into tiles encircling the pavilion’s green space. From art to architecture, Seattle Center Fund has long encouraged investment in the Center of your life, ensuring that the Nation’s Best Gathering Place keeps growing and flourishing.
