The Burien Strawberry & Arts Festival happens just two weekends from this one (on June 20th and 21st), in the area around the Burien Community Center and Dottie Harper Park, and it’s a very family-friendly (and FREE) event worth making a weekend out of, especially for these numerous kid-friendly reasons:
