This Week’s Speaker
Tim Kuniholm, Seattle Aquarium, A Bright Future For Our Aquarium, City And Ocean (Feb. 18)
Tim, the Seattle Aquarium’s Senior Director of Public Relations and Strategic Partnerships, has a depth of business experience that makes him uniquely suited for his role. After graduating from the University of Washington with a B.A. in communications, he launched his career in marketing and promotions for the Downtown Seattle Association.
His relationship with the Seattle Aquarium began when he formed a special-event consulting firm, Rain City Event Marketing, through which he produced events for the Aquarium and other clients. Tim joined the Aquarium staff full time in 2000 and has worked in close partnership with the marketing and creative team on all our annual advertising campaigns.
Tim’s role has shifted in 2019 to focus primarily on media, tourism and strategic partnerships as we ramp up to the new Ocean Pavilion. Tim lives in Shoreline with his wife Holly, son Tyler (attending Western Washington University) and cares for his senior father Richard in a multi-generational household.

Bellevue Rotary’s Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The Bellevue Rotary Club unequivocally embraces Rotary’s intolerance for racism. We believe in promoting respect, celebrating diversity, demanding ethical leadership, and working tirelessly to advance peace as central tenets of our work. We recognize we have more work to do to create a more just, open and welcoming club for all people. We acknowledge and support Black humanity and its value. We acknowledge the sadness, anger, mental and emotional exhaustion, and trauma that our African American members and other people of color continue to experience. The Bellevue Rotary Club understands its responsibility towards truth, equity, and social justice, and will work with our members to dismantle any and all forms of systemic racism within our Club. To do this, we will carefully look at our Club’s culture, policies, partners, and the work we do in our community as we work to improve ourselves first. The Bellevue Rotary Club will also work towards being an anti-racist club in alignment with our long history and value of serving humanity.
