Artful Access

Artful Access, in collaboration with Seattle Art Source and Path with Art, seeks funding to support the reopening of a vital art activation space in the heart of Georgetown. This project aims to reinvigorate the local art scene, provide accessible art experiences, and foster community engagement through a series of public forums, educational programs, and performances. These events aim to represent Seattle Art Source's partnered figurative artists and provide a public space for viewers to observe the artwork that's usually hidden from the public eye. With the partnership, Artful Access strives to give back to the community in the form of donating collaborative artwork. Despite Georgetown being a vibrant artistic hub in Seattle, it still faces challenges in maintaining accessible spaces for community art engagement. The renovation and reopening of Seattle Art Source's gallery space present a unique opportunity to address this need, providing a centralized location for art appreciation.

Bike Happy Cascadia

The Aurora corridor does not currently meet the needs of a 21st Century Seattle. We need to re­envision the section of Highway 99 that stretches from the Aurora Bridge to the city's northern boundary. This effort will amplify the needs of the many neighborhoods that touch Aurora and bring community-focused insight to the planning process. Through a series of online interactive visioning workshops, the Aurora Reimagined Coalition (ARC) will engage neighbors and stakeholders of Aurora. Trained volunteers will help facilitate discussion and elicit the public's priorities. We will raise up a shared community vision of a future Aurora Ave N. With public input we will create a list of short- and long-­term priorities and projects that WSDOT and SDOT can implement in order to make Aurora a safer, more enjoyable place to live, work, shop, and travel through.
