Attire
Dress during NHTI is casual, and the Pacific Northwest is known for its casual style. This means you can wear shorts, T-shirts, jeans, tennis shoes, sandals, etc. Some faculty and participants may prefer to dress more formally for the closing banquet on the last night of the Institute.
Free Time
Your schedule during the Institute will be quite tight, so we recommend that you plan any sightseeing activities before or after the program. However, you will have the chance to explore Seattle on Wednesday evening.
Seattle Weather
Seattle is a great city to visit in July! The weather is usually sunny with temperatures in the low 70s. While there is a possibility of rain, the summers are generally beautiful and dry.
Bedrooms in Oak Hall are not air conditioned; however, common spaces and hallways are. The Oak Denny room, where sessions are held, is also air conditioned, so we recommend bringing a sweater or cardigan to help you stay comfortable during the sessions.
