Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Center & Theatre
The Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Center & Theatre
complex (ECC) epitomizes the university9s commitment
to diversity. The center first opened its doors in 1972
in response to student demands for greater cultural
diversity in educational programming and activities on
campus. The new center is equipped with a ballroom,
a kitchen, and various meeting rooms, and has hosted
cultural events and programs like meetings for student
groups, conferences, and soirees. The Ethnic Cultural
Theatre (ECT) is a student-run 161-seat performance
space at the heart of the movement to encourage crosscultural exchange and learning through performing arts.
In previous years, the ECT produced its own season of
performances, but it is now primarily a rental venue for
both UW-affiliated groups and performance organizations
from the greater Seattle area. The ECC and ECT both
host programming that focuses on cultural and ethnic
diversity and enriches the student experience outside the
classroom.
