Join us for the September Members’ Dinner as we welcome Dr. Neil King from the University of Washington’s Institute for Protein Design and Department of Biochemistry. Dr. King will be speaking about "AI for good: using computers to design new protein-based medicines."

Proteins are nature’s tiny machines — they build, repair, defend, and pretty much keep all living things alive. But what if we could design our own proteins to do brand-new jobs, like deliver vaccines or treat diseases? That’s where protein design comes in — and where Dr. Neil King’s lab gets to play science’s version of 3D Lego.

Seattle-area native Monty Banks is an award-winning singer, pianist, bandleader, and entertainer known for his authentic, high-energy performances. His style blends Rat Pack-era swing, traditional jazz, and New Orleans R&B into a lively, crowd-pleasing mix.

From New York to Vegas, cruise ships to casinos, Monty's musical journey has now brought him to the birthplace of jazz. “I love mixing the swing of Sinatra, the blues of Jelly Roll Morton, and the boogie of Fats Domino,” he says. “That’s my kind of good times music!”

Monty splits his time between Seattle and New Orleans—this is his final show before heading back south. Expect a few surprise guest stars to join the party!

No Dinner Service tonight, but Bar is open + small bites. See you there!

What’s Sillunch?
What is a Sillunch? A sillbord (literally “herring table”) is a traditional Swedish buffet centered around pickled herring, served with classic sides like boiled potatoes, sour cream, crispbread, eggs, cheese, and more. It’s a staple of Swedish holidays like Midsummer and Christmas, and a Sillunch is a casual way to enjoy this flavorful tradition—a lighter, herring-focused take on the smörgåsbord.

RSVP encouraged—come hungry!
