Two cedar carvings by Indigenous artists have taken their place along the Seattle waterfront.
- One carving by artist Randi Purser of the Suquamish Tribe depicts Chief Sealth — for whom the city of Seattle is named — as an infant in his mother's arms.
- The other, by Tyson Simmons and Keith Stevenson of the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, depicts a warrior, "representing 'strength and honor for the people,'" per a city blog post.
