Northwest Folklife is an independent
year-round nonprofit organization
dedicated to creating opportunities
for all people to appreciate, share, and
participate in the evolving folk and ethnic
traditions of the Pacific Northwest. Every
year since 1972 we have presented the
Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle
Center on Memorial Day Weekend.
The Pacific Northwest is home to an
extraordinary group of communities—
ethnic, familial, occupational, religious, and
regional—and we believe it is important
to celebrate and help sustain the traditions
of all of those groups. Doing so revitalizes
people and communities and helps preserve
cultural heritage for years to come. We
believe that when people share their way
of life, opportunities are created to dissolve
misunderstandings, break down stereotypes
and increase respect for one another.
The Northwest Folklife Festival is just
one way Northwest Folklife brings this
celebration of diversity and tradition to the
heart of Seattle. Find out more about us by
visiting our website, nwfolklife.org, or by
stopping by a Festival Information Booth.
About Northwest Folklife

It is our pleasure to welcome you to your
42nd annual Northwest Folklife Festival
This weekend’s celebration of folklife is the celebration of all that we do in the Pacific Northwest. And as we gather
together for the forty-second consecutive year to share and participate in our traditions, we do so only because of you!
It is a special gift to be able to experience the arts and cultures of our region this holiday weekend. The Festival has
attracted many of you from across our country here to the Northwest. We invite you all to take part, not simply listen
or watch. Whether you pick up an instrument, learn something new, dance and sing or try a new food, the Folklife
Festival is a perfect chance to enjoy what you already know and appreciate, and also a great opportunity
to experience something new. Special this year: watch for programming around our Cultural Focus: Washington
Works, featuring exhibits, films, demonstrations, storytelling and performances that explore various aspects of
occupational folklore and the ever-changing workplaces in Washington State.
Northwest Folklife is committed to keeping this celebration free. In doing so, we continue to encourage the
participation of everyone without a fiscal barrier to the many opportunities here. By encouraging arts and
celebrating cultures together we enrich our communities and improve the quality of life all around us.
Maintaining this goal takes the effort and support from so many, and we offer grateful thanks to all of you who
donate money, time and expertise to this endeavor. We’ll ask all of you who can to join us in “owning” the Folklife
Festival—donate this weekend to the cause of keeping our Festival free and encouraging this work to continue. You
can participate in other ways, too. In fact, Northwest Folklife is recruiting new members for our board of directors
to help us plan the future of the organization. Look for more information and a link on page 22 of this guide.
There is great news for our future: we have renewed our continuous relationship with our host and presenting
partner Seattle Center through 2018! We will continue to recognize and celebrate the evolving cultural traditions
and practices of our region in our longtime home, just as Seattle Center itself continues to evolve and change. Come
with us! Be a partner in our work – donate your support and enjoy our annual rite of spring for years to come!
We hope you enjoy your Festival!

Cultural Focus:Washingtonworks Cultural Focus:Washingtonworks
Washington State has always been a
hotbed of labor activity. In the early
1900s, the timber industry brought
wealth to the Northwest, and timber
workers began to band together to
form unions and go after benefits
the better economy could provide.
Many joined the Industrial Workers
of the World (IWW), a radical labor
organization whose aim was to “put the
supervision of industry in the hands of
those that do the work.” People called
members of the IWW “Wobblies,” and
the Wobblies supported a new tactic
called the “strike,” where workers
walked off the job when their requests
were denied.
The influence of the Wobblies reached
its peak in 1919. World War I had
ended, and Seattle shipyard workers
were expecting a pay raise to make up
for years of strict governmental wage
controls. They did not get their raise. So
in February 1919, shipyard workers made
international headlines when they led the
Seattle General Strike. To show solidarity
with the shipyard workers, most of the
city’s 110 local unions took part. In all,
more than 65,000 people participated—
almost a quarter of the workforce. The
strike lasted three days and garnered
worldwide headlines. The issues centered
on workplace rights and the importance
of maintaining the unions. Though it
was unsuccessful in getting the raise, the
Seattle General Strike is recognized as
one of the most extreme labor actions in
American history.
Other unions flourished in the decades
following as the importance of trade
increased in the region. The workers
who first drove teams of horses, then
trucks, to deliver goods organized as the
Teamsters. The longshoremen and dock
workers organized as the International
Longshoremen and Workers Union,
the ILWU. World War II further
expanded Washington’s economy with
shipbuilding and airplane construction.
But with all the union building, there
was also segregation. Throughout
Washington’s history, people of color
have faced many barriers in the
workplace. Labor unions excluded
them, and employers gave them the
most disagreeable jobs. Many workers
of color formed their own unions:
Filipinos in Alaskan canneries, African
American tradespeople on construction
sites of Seattle, and Latinos in western
Washington vineyards. Those civil rights
victories set national precedents and
served as models for unions in other
parts of the United States.
Women also experienced discrimination
at work, and they fought back. In
1936, Elsie Parrish, an underpaid
female employee in Wenatchee, won
a Supreme Court case that established
minimum wage laws for women. Later,
efforts in the Northwest were at the
forefront of the movement for pay
equity in the 1970s and 1980s.
With changes to the Northwest’s
economy, working people and union
members have continued to take
the lead in promoting equality and
well-being. In 1999, the Washington
State Labor Council, AFL-CIO, led the
labor movement protests against the
World Trade Organization (WTO)
in opposing trade policies that
benefited multinational corporations
at the expense of workers and the
environment. That event amplified the
global call for fair trade policies and
made international headlines, just like
the 1919 General Strike. Shortly after
the WTO protest, Boeing engineers
participated in the largest white-collar
strike in United States history.
Labor unions continue to be an
important part of Washington life.
There are unions in the building trades
and the service industry, in education
and in the public sector. Washington,
at 15%, has one of the largest union
workforces in the country.
No wonder—union roots run deep here.

Washington Works The 2013 festival
celebrates our work. For many of us, our work not only pays the
bills, it gives meaning to our lives. Washington Works explores the
ways people in our state make a living, with a special emphasis
on union jobs. This region has a long history of labor organizing,
and Washington state has one of the largest union workforces
in the country. When we polled the Northwest Folklife staff, we
found mothers, fathers, brothers, uncles, grandfathers, and part
Did you know? Northwest Folklife will be producing short video documentaries as part of the Washington Works program.
Work. It’s what we all do every day . . .
and sometimes it feels like it consumes us.
But work also gives us our identity, and
the kinds of work people do gives rise to
inspiration in the form of art, music, and
culture. In the words of poet and folksinger
Charlie King, “Our life is more than our
work, and our work is more than our job.”
The Washington State Labor Council,
AFL-CIO, and its coalition partners believe
that “work is more than a job.” For the second year in a row, the
entire month of May has been dedicated to the celebration of work
through MayWorks, a four-week-long series of art exhibits, musical
performances, film competitions, lectures and parades that celebrates
the culture of work from the last century through today.
MayWorks is dedicated to honoring the struggles of the past while
inspiring those who are struggling right now. It gives voice to workers
through music, art, books, and poetry—through the celebration
of the culture of working people.
The Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO, is proud to be involved
in Washington Works events at the 2013 Northwest Folklife Festival as
the finale to the MayWorks celebration. See the complete calendar of
MayWorks events on www.thestand.org.

Rosie the Riveter:
A World War II Icon and
Part of Washington History
“Rosie the Riveter” was a generic
name given to women who worked
non-traditional jobs in factories and
shipyards during WWII while men
were away at war. The nickname
came from a song by that name
written in 1942. There were “Rosies”
all over the country working
in factories that manufactured
munitions and war supplies. In the
Pacific Northwest, Rosie the Riveters
could be found at Todd Shipyards
and Kaiser Shipyards building ships,
Indian Island making submarine nets,
Fort Lewis working as mechanics, and
at many Boeing plants throughout
the region constructing airplanes. For
most of the Rosies, their jobs ended
when the war did—when the men
returned. But the Rosies marked a
turning point in labor history: they
were women who successfully held
jobs that, until then, only men had
held. Rosies opened the door for
women to work in the trades—
in construction, manufacturing,
and transportation.
Six years ago, Washington Women
in Trades (WWIT) embarked on a
project to interview and photograph
all of the Rosies they could locate
in the state in order to create a
calendar that commemorated their
work. Since WWIT was founded
by and for women working in the
trades, it made sense to recognize
the women in the region who were
the foremothers of the modern
tradeswomen. The WWIT members
discovered that the project went far
beyond what they had anticipated.
Each Rosie’s story is compelling; each
goes beyond building airplanes or
welding ships. They are stories that
span a century of living.
Most Rosies were just teenagers
when they hired on. Many had never
left home. They were risk-takers
who rode crowded trains across the
country with empty pockets and
paper bags full of lunch, seeking
adventure and decent paychecks.
They lived in boarding houses, they
trained and they worked. They
slogged through exhaustive hours,
split shifts, interminable bus and
ferry rides, and sexual and racial
oppression. And seventy years ago
they paved the way for other
women to follow.
Since 2008, WWIT has been
producing a calendar that features
Washington State Rosies. Every
year it gets harder and harder
to find “calendar girls”--these
women are national treasures with,
unfortunately, an expiration date.
The Washington Women in Trades
are proud to introduce you to some
of the most important women
in labor in the region.
Washington Women in Trades is
a non-profit organization whose
mission is to improve women’s
economic equity and self-sufficiency
through access and success in high-
wage, high-skilled careers in the
construction, manufacturing and
transportation sector.

Riveting History.”

This Festival guide was designed
and printed by members of the
Pacific Northwest Newspaper
Guild, which represents
journalists, sales professionals,
production staff, and circulation
workers at newspapers and print
businesses across Washington state. The largest
membership is at The Seattle Times. The guild’s
history dates to 1933, when columnist Heywood
Broun and a small group of colleagues formed
the American Newspaper Guild to fight for better
pay and working conditions in Depression-era
newsrooms. Today the guild is a local affiliate of
the Communications Workers of America and is
allied with over 700,000 other union members.
Labor Art Exhibits in the Lopez Room
Explore the rich labor history of Washington state and the Pacific Northwest through the eyes
of its labor groups, past and present, in five exhibits mounted in the Lopez Room.
Journey for Justice: 223
Years of APA Labor History
in the Puget Sound
This exhibit tells a workers’ epic story of the
Asian Pacific American (APA) labor communities
in the Pacific Northwest from the 1850s to the
Seattle General Strike of 1919 up to the present
day APA Islander communities in Washington
state. Journey for Justice captures the frequently
overlooked story of APA workers in this region
through a photographic narrative, historical
timeline and portraits of contemporary APA
workers.This exhibit sends a powerful message
by recalling the Pacific Northwest region’s
troubled past of discrimination against APA
workers and the efforts of solidarity by the
IWW and ILWU against racism.This exhibit
underscores the point that, for APA labor
communities, the journey for justice continues.
Men Along the Shore
and the Legacy of 1934
The International Longshore Worker’s Union
(ILWU) was one of the unions in solidarity with
APA workers in the 1920s.Through photographs,
graphics and newspapers, this historical exhibit
by the Longshore Division of the ILWU chronicles
the story of how longshoremen, considered
little more than transients at the time, stood up
and made history.The Pacific Coast Maritime
Strike and the subsequent San Francisco General
Strike are two of the most significant events in
the labor history of both San Francisco and the
United States.The exhibit’s chronicling of the
past provides a mirror of events occurring
with workers of today.
Voices from the
Tidelands: A portrait
of geoduck farmers from
South Puget Sound
The exhibit by independent folklorist Elaine
Vradenburgh provides a glimpse into the
experience of geoduck farming in the South
Puget Sound from the perspectives of a few local
growers.Through stories and photographs, the
exhibit explores how shellfish farmers develop a
personal connection with both the tidelands and
the community of people who engage in this
tradition through their daily work on the Sound.

Globalization issues

Images of Labor and
Social Justice: The Art
of Richard V. Correll
Richard V. (Dick) Correll (1904-1990) was one
of the leading masters of printmaking in the
West. For most of his life he earned a living
as a commercial artist in the book publishing
and advertising fields. But he is best known
for the powerful black-and-white linoleum
cuts, etchings, and woodblock prints that he
produced while working on his own time.
Correll’s themes ranged widely: from
landscapes, agricultural scenes, and harbors and ships to animals and music and dance. Most
of his work reflected his lifelong concern with political and social issues.
This exhibit features selections from several core areas of Correll’s recently donated collection,
housed at the Labor Archives of Washington, University of Washington Libraries Special
Collections.The entire collection includes images of labor, social justice, civil rights, anti-war
themes, work he did for the Great Depression-era Federal Art Project, and his work for the
progressive Depression-era newspaper the Voice of Action.

About the Washington
State Labor Council
Find Out More About Labor
Founded in 1992 following an unprecedented grassroots fundraising campaign
in the labor community, the Harry Bridges Center for Labor Studies honors the
memory of legendary leader Harry Bridges, former president of the International
Longshore and Warehouse Union. Based at the University of Washington (UW),
the Center promotes the study of work, workers, and their organization provides
a meeting place where people from the academic world, the labor movement,
and the community can exchange ideas and insights.
The Labor Archives of Washington (LAW) was founded to preserve the records of
working people and their unions and to serve as a center for historical research,
ensuring that new generations have access to the rich labor history of the region.
A unit of the Special Collections Department of UW, the Labor Archives is a
collaborative project of the Harry Bridges Center for Labor Studies and the
UW Libraries. Visit: laborarchives.org
The Labor Education and Research Center (LERC) at the South Seattle Community
College provides direct training and education to unions and other groups
interested in workplace rights and classes in labor history, popular economics,
leadership development and union skills like collective bargaining.
