White Cane Day Walk 2026 is coming up! Register now!
🦯 What does a white cane represent? Independence.
For people who are blind or low vision, a white cane can help identify obstacles, changes in walking surfaces, landmarks, and other important information while navigating the world.
But it represents something even bigger: the freedom to commute to work, catch a bus, meet friends, go shopping, explore a new neighborhood, and travel independently.
On October 17, we’ll celebrate that independence during Seattle’s annual White Cane Day Walk.
Come walk alongside people who are blind and low vision, friends, families, community partners, and allies!
📅 Saturday October 17 – 10 AM
