West Seattle heads into the weekend with a lighter feel before the holiday season ramps up, even with a planned morning closure of the Delridge offramp from the westbound West Seattle Bridge for inspection work.

The day still covers a lot of ground. Early events include an at-your-pace run from West Seattle Runner, free meditation at Inner Alchemy Studio/Sanctuary, and Metro League volleyball tournament matches for West Seattle High School at Denny International Middle School.

By midmorning, the schedule shifts toward neighborhood staples: expanded Saturday hours at the Log House Museum, a holiday craft and bake fair at The Kenney, the regular dachshund meetup at Alki Statue of Liberty Plaza, live music at C & P Coffee, family story time at High Point Library, and the start of a GriefShare series at Grace Church.

Later stops include family reading time at Paper Boat Booksellers, an open house at Tilden School, a Medicare presentation at the Center for Active Living, and the tasting room at Viscon Cellars. Taken together, the day reads less like a major festival than a steady run of the small events that give West Seattle its weekend rhythm.
