Weekend Listen: In Seattle, an exhibit by an Iranian artist examines the idea of freedom for women in her country, and teens and seniors swap tech skills and life skills

from Seattle Now · host KUOW News and Information

Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom. While the U.S. and Iran are attempting to negotiate an end to the U.S. led war, the Iranian men’s national soccer team is scheduled to travel to Seattle next week for the World Cup. They will face off against Egypt in their final match in the group stage. Just blocks from where the teams will play, an exhibit by an Iranian artist examines the idea of freedom for women in her country. KUOW’s Ayeda Masood has the story. And, teenagers and senior citizens might seem like they don't have a lot in common: different generations, different technology, different language. But one teacher in Skagit County bridged the divide by putting teenagers and senior citizens in a room together so they could learn from one another. Kyle Norris reports.
