Forward Flux Productions with Parley and Nate Omdal Productions presents Your [ ____ ] Neighborhood, an exhibition of new works investigating gentrification. This one-night-only event marks the completion of an artists' residency program called collaborate:create. 21 artists have worked across disciplines to create new works in 21 days that investigate this timely topic. Engage with art and artists to make your voice heard!
The exhibition has a pARTy atmosphere with a full evening of new works including dance, film, visual art, 10min plays, performative and multimedia installations, music, and more, all exploring the changing face of Seattle's neighborhoods. There will be opportunities to meet the artists, and engage in conversation with your fellow neighbors at the show.
