What an incredible day at the Harborview Summer Market in July! ☀️💜 (UWMC markets coming in August!)

Hundreds of members of the Harborview community came out to enjoy an afternoon of summer fun, connection and community. We explored local vendors, watched the Blue Angels soar overhead and cooled off with ice cream thanks to the HMC Resiliency Committee! 🍦✈️

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special—and to our generous sponsors and partners for helping us bring experiences like this to the UW community. Husky Mobile Decathlon America BECU credit union TIAA
