Virtual event to spotlight youth talents

Bomb cyclone storm impacts

A bomb cyclone windstorm lashed Bellevue the night of Tuesday, Nov. 19, bringing down trees throughout the city and leaving hundreds of thousands without power. Most city facilities have power but some are on modified hours or closed due to power outages. Damages from the storm continue to impact Bellevue, prompting the mayor to proclaim a civil emergency in the city. Updates about the city's response will be posted at Bomb Cyclone Storm.

Bellevue young people will take the virtual stage Friday, March 4, to perform cultural dances, spoken word and other forms of artistic expression during Bellevue Youth Link’s “Unique and United” event.

The event, 6-7:30 p.m. via Zoom, celebrates Bellevue's growing diversity. Bellevue Youth Link is a leadership program sponsored by the Parks & Community Service Department and Bellevue Public Schools.

“Bellevue is one of the most diverse cities in the state,” said Parks & Community Services Director Michael Shiosaki. “Nearly 100 languages are spoken by students in the Bellevue School District, and we want to celebrate the vibrancy and strength of our diverse community.”

The event is open to all members of the public and preregistration is required.
