See Subaru at the show!

Be sure to stop by the Subaru display located on the Skybridge at the Washington State Convention Center!

This year, Subaru will bring you a taste of the wild, wild, west with some rip-roaring music to match! All of the action will be situated under our big, red barn!

In the South Lobby you’ll discover the all-new 2012 Subaru “Impreza Improv” display. With easy access to round-up your gardening supplies, the Subaru Impreza is a great addition to your gardening tool kit! This display will come alive with tree pruning demonstrations on Wednesday and Thursday.

Subaru proudly presents “Growing a Greener World,” a seminar presented by the award-winning Joe Lamp’l. Following his Friday and Saturday seminars, Joe will greet showgoers at the Subaru garden. Visit the Subaru display on the skybridge for information on front row VIP reserved seats for five seminars!
