Tillicum Village, Native American cultural site on Blake Island, United States
The Tillicum Village complex spans 5 acres within Blake Island State Park, featuring a longhouse where visitors experience Northwest Coast Native traditions and performances.
Founded in 1962 by Bill Hewitt, Tillicum Village served as a venue for the first Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum hosted by President Clinton in 1993.
The longhouse presents Northwest Coast Native art, traditional mask dances, and storytelling performances that demonstrate the customs of British Columbia tribes.
Visitors reach the village through a boat journey from Seattle's Pier 55, receiving clam broth upon arrival before entering the cedar stake salmon cooking demonstration.
The dining experience combines freshly prepared salmon cooked over alder wood fire with a 25-minute performance featuring traditional Northwest Coast Native dancers.
