Collaboration is defined as “the action of working cooperatively to produce or create something.” It is the perfect definition for ART BY DESIGN as Northwest Art Alliance partners with Seattle Design Center to offer a venue to showcase the work of local artists. Producing this two-day event brought NWAA Event Director, Marissa Motto, the opportunity to create something new, built around the atrium and showrooms of the Seattle Design Center. Her creative vision introduced the event in 2023.

Working collaboratively with Seattle Design Center leadership, the event has been ever evolving. Marissa is looking forward to this fresh new approach and smiles when she says, “we have gathered an amazing group of NWAA artists offering a wide range of medium and styles to capture the interest of patrons.” The shift in venue space allows for improved display and the chance to check out the design businesses which are normally closed to the general public. And this year, the event is part of the Georgetown “Art Attack” (their monthly art walk) and a wine happy hour was added. Check out this collaboration and let us know what you think!

Northwest Art Alliance is dedicated to connecting the power of art, fine craft, and community.

Northwest Art Alliance's mission and goals include expanding general and targeted outreach to all communities and artists to better serve artists' needs and help sustain support for their vocation. NWAA connects artists to the broader community through it's shows.
