Founded in 1891 by 22 intrepid women musicians, the Ladies Musical Club is Seattle's oldest musical organization. Our original mission was to foster an appreciation of classical music in the cultural life of a city that was just starting to find its identity.
Over the last 130+ years, we have worked extensively to accomplish our mission. Through a number of programs, concerts, and educational opportunities, see how we have made an impact and expanded the appreciation of classical music.
