Callanwolde Fine Arts Center is located in the 1920 Gothic-Tudor style home of the Charles Howard Candler family. It offers classes for adults and children, covering topics on literary art, visual art and performing arts. Historic tours are offered. The venue is a very beautiful place to hold a wedding as well.
This non-profit arts center was founded more than 50 years ago, as an outlet for North Shore artists. Just north of downtown Highland Park, the experience begins before one even walks inside. The grounds of the center are alive with sculptures of various types. Inside, information about classes, exhibitions and workshops are offered. The center is supported by donations, and those who donate receive special privileges as members.
Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church is a local orthodox church. The church features youth ministers, youth sports teams, choir and weekly services. It welcomes all who are open to learning its ways.
This is one of the most beautiful and magnificently adorned churches in Eagle Rock. It began as a parish chapel in a vacant store and was subsequently moved to a private home before opening to the public on Rosary Sunday in 1941. An earlier version of the church, built in 1925, was located across Merton Avenue and was part of St Dominic's School. The church and the school existed in a single building for 16 years on the site where the school now stands.
The Ivar's restaurants are a fixture in the Pacific Northwest. Seattle native Ivar Hagland was famous as a larger-than-life local character, but he knew how to fry up fish and chips, too. His original recipe, cooked up in 1938, still dominates the local fish-and-chip world.
This Coulon Park edition is located right on the shore of Lake Washington. There is outside seating for fine weather and if it's raining, no matter. Sit inside and enjoy the best fish and chips, chowder (both clam and smoked salmon) around. For dessert try the tuxedo truffle mousse.
