A new movement called Black Girls Do Bike is helping women of color get physical. But it's more than an exercise program. Members explore neighborhoods and identify common concerns. They say by connecting community they create community. Also, a tiny nonprofit located in Seattle City Hall called Moving Image Preservation of Puget Sound (MIPoPS) takes on a huge task - preserving the video history of a small West Seattle museum. And, art helps Yesler Terrace residents adjust to major changes in their community. Host Dennis Bounds has these stories from SIFF Cinema Uptown, home to the upcoming Animation Show of Shows.

They now work to break down barriers by breaking bread through the project Eat With Muslims.

The Alaskan Way Viaduct has snaked along Seattle's waterfront for six decades. Yes, it was noisy, gray and dangerous, but many drivers liked its easy access; and everyone loved the views. Even critics are nostalgic and sad to see it go. Also, we'll backtrack a century and learn why it was imperative to build the roadway. A roadway one man has experienced up close and personal daily. For 11 years he has lived 30 feet from the span, close enough to wave to passing commuters! Host Enrique Cerna shares these stories on, around, and above the Alaskan Way Viaduct.

Finish shopping. Bake cookies. Write cards. It's a common holiday to-do list, but not much fun. The Christmas Ship, that's fun. The festive ship and its parade of boats have been a Northwest tradition for 60 years. Onboard, carolers spread good cheer. And onshore, crowds huddle around a bonfire, taking in the sights of the brightly lit boats. The holiday experience gets sweeter at Gingerbread Village. This year's theme - "Welcome to Whoville" - is a tribute to Dr. Seuss and the Grinch, of course. Also, Winterfest is a hub for all things festive in town. The Winter Train & Village and ice rink are perennial favorites. See what it takes to make them come alive for all to enjoy. Host Nicole Sanchez has these stories and more in our special holiday show from Winterfest at Seattle Center.

Many refugees arrive here with few job skills. They don't speak English, and the customs confuse them. Life is difficult. But, one group is teaching refugee women to tap into their creative side. It's an opportunity that's paying off! Opportunity is also at the heart of another organization working to help young adults out of homelessness. New Horizons offers a hand up rather than a hand out to those struggling to survive on the streets. And, "reduce, reuse, recycle" is the philosophy behind an exciting and environmentally conscious art festival. Host Linda Byron has these stories from Pottery Northwest.

During this time of year when we give thanks, one man is giving back. Troy Nebeker is helping those who've just learned they have cancer. He understands; his wife was twice diagnosed with the disease. An avid paddleboarder, he put out a call to the entire human-powered craft community, and it responded. His event is called, "The 24." It's a relay paddle where teams spend 24 hours on the water. Nebeker says it's grueling and exhausting, just like cancer. He also says it's incredibly rewarding when they hand out the funds they've raised to grateful recipients. Host Jeff Renner has this inspiring story from The Center for Wooden Boats, a setting that regularly hosts traditional tribal canoe shapings. Master canoe carver Saaduuts Peele shows us the process that's been handed down for generations. 

Second-generation Japanese Americans, known as Nisei, were highly decorated during World War II. Once the fighting ended, stories from their lives were seldom shared. Photographer Shane Sato spent 20 years documenting these humble heroes. Little by little, he got them to open up about their past. Those reflections are revealed in his book, "Portraits of Courage." And, as we mark the centennial of The Great War - we're reminded of the impact it had on Seattle and how it helped shape the city. From the economy to healthcare, organized labor to the state of our democracy - all were influenced by World War I. Also, a program that uses music to mend those suffering from PTSD is striking a chord. Some veterans call it a lifesaver. Host Enrique Cerna has these stories from the Museum of History & Industry.

CityStream ventures to one of the last pristine cloud forests on Earth to witness Woodland Park Zoo's renowned animal conservation program in action! Papua New Guinea is home to endangered tree kangaroos. Locals nearly hunted them to extinction.

Dr. Lisa Dabek says this effort can only be sustained if villagers take the lead. See how a Seattle coffee company has forged a vital link to help make that happen. Host Penny LeGate has these stories from Woodland Park Zoo.

Each year, the haunting season intensifies when the doors creak open at the Georgetown Morgue. This dark and devious house of horrors is irresistible to many.
