The NWAA offers many ways your company can support and be a part of the Best of the Northwest Shows and our community outreach programs. In becoming a sponsor, your company will receive visibility at Seattle’s Premier Art & Fine Craft Shows and a connection with the Northwest art community and the community at large. To become a sponsor, start by emailing us at info@nwartalliance.org!    

Be part of an exciting new NWAA event!

Fiber + Flair Artisan Marketplace will be held Feb 6 & 7, 2027 (the weekend before Valentine's Day) at the beautiful Great Osberg Hall in the National Nordic Museum in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood. The admission is free to the public. And although this is a new event, there is significant buzz around a specialty show featuring handmade wearable art. There will be 40+ juried vendors in a variety of wearable mediums. We will have special features, including giveaways and prize drawings for attendees, art demos, and a wine garden hosted by Martedi Winery of Woodinville. The museum is offering discounted admission to showgoers. The attendees can vote for their favorite art booth, and 2 artists will win a cash prize.

We are looking for community partners to sponsor this event. Sponsors can choose several different levels of participation and benefits all designed to support the event, PNW artists AND help promote local businesses to our patrons.

Joining Fiber + Flair is the Seattle chapter of Dress for Success. Dress for Success furnishes clients with clothing, confidence, career skills, and community that carries forward to achieve her financial independence. We are happy to welcome this esteemed charity as an event partner. At the event there will be an opportunity to donate gently-used clothing to their efforts.

Thank you to those that offer ongoing support to the Best of the Northwest shows!

We appreciate the businesses and organizations whose generosity made this event possible.

Additional Sponsorship Opportunities  

Northwest Art Alliance offers additional features that sponsors can select for more benefits and visibility. They are opportunities to have exclusive signage and give company handouts to patrons. These features can be combined with other purchased sponsor levels or purchased separately with a onetime “Show Support” level included for free. Prices for additional features will be tailored to the event. Options are:  

• Cultural Connections- Sponsors can underwrite a large booth of cultural art presented at a Best of the Northwest show. Examples: native American art, other ethnic art or specialty guilds. Cultural Connection booths could include artists exhibiting and demonstrating their work.   

• Art Education Outreach- Sponsors can underwrite a free art course to teach at senior centers, community centers and similar venues using Best of the Northwest artists as teachers.   

• Educational Videos Program- Sponsors can contribute to our ongoing program to highlight PNW artists and education artist to improve their chance to enter high quality shows.

• Hosted Event- A sponsor may consider hosting an event at a select winery, brewery or other venues with proceeds to benefit NWAA.

Please contact us with your questions and ideas. If you desire, we will work with you to create a special benefit package, tailored to your needs. Email us at info@nwartalliance.org.
