2023 Ice Cream Social
ICE CREAM SOCIAL AT THE VASHON HERITAGE MUSEUM
Nestled west of Vashon uptown on Bank Road, the Vashon Heritage Museum hosts a beloved Friday tradition of a community Ice Cream Social during Strawberry Festival. The ice cream social has grown with the National recognition of our Museum and we now offer seating, lawn games, photo opportunities, and a Main Stage with live music. Island band, “The Burton Beats”, will perform tunes from oldies to modern folk rock. The family friendly community atmosphere can’t be beat. Neighbors and friends connect, families in tow, and enjoy something everyone has in common: the love of Vashon.
Join us this year rain, shine — we’ll have tents to protect from heat or drizzle, 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Friday, July 14th, 2023. Vashon Heritage Museum, Garden of the Ancients.
Open and free invite to the community, donations welcomed.
