Artist at the Center
Seattle Center thrives on partnerships, and we’ve just launched a new program in partnership with Seattle Office of Arts & Culture, Uptown Arts & Culture Coalition and Climate Pledge Arena. Artists at the Center offers a year-long slate of performances featuring creative up-and-coming artists to commemorate the Arena’s inaugural year. The free pop-ups at Seattle Center run through September 2022. Artists at the Center hosts music, dance, theatre and multi-disciplinary performances, presented by individual artists and performance groups based in the Puget Sound region. The 29 artists and groups were selected through a program designed to offer campus visitors a surprising and delightful arts and cultural experience as they encounter the performances on their way through the campus.
You can catch two of the performances this week:
- Red Eagle Soaring, 5pm, Dec. 18 at Theater Commons
- Northwest Tap Connection, 12:30pm, Dec. 19, in Seattle Center Armory
Here’s the full roster of selected artists:
206 Zulu, Adriana Girodano, Alfonso Cervera, Alia Swersky, Alicia Mullikin, Alfonso Cervera, Arami Walker, Arson Nicki, Da Biest, Dance with Dora, Gender Tender, Grupo Cultural Oaxaqueno, Inspired Child, Jamal Farr / Black Stax, Khu’éex’, Kole Galbraith, Let the Strings Speak, Lorna Velasco, Margo Jones, Nia Amina Minor, Orquestra Northwest, Northwest Tap Connection, Positively Positive Education, Red Eagle Soaring, Rochelle House, Sistas Rock the Arts, Sumayya E.
