Artloose

SEATTLE


An urban art-venture by Art Zowie.


Artloose is your invitation to create, wander, and loosen your grip as you're guided by local artists to create at popular galleries, studios, and landmarks in Seattle. 

 

Seattle itself is a work of art. Through its neighborhoods, its textures, its skyline, natural topography, and innovative culture. Artloose invites you into the living canvas of summer in Seattle.


Unlike a traditional art walk, where you observe from the sidelines, this experience allows you to enter and create within the spaces that inspire the city itself.

Make Art as You Wander Through Seattle

Imagine This...


It's 10 AM on a Saturday in July. You're standing in a local artist's studio in Pike Place Market, watercolor set in hand, surrounded by 14 other curious souls.


The artist prompts you with a vendor arranging dahlias. You try to capture the gesture—loose, quick, imperfect. It doesn't look like a photograph. It looks like yours.


Lunch is spent overlooking the puget sound with whatever culinary delight from the market struck your fancy.


By 2 PM, your group has shuttled to the Olympic Sculpture Park. Puget Sound glitters behind you as you work outside overlooking the water. You're layering collage pieces—maps, tissue paper, paint—responding to the dialogue between steel sculptures and natural landscape.


By 4 PM, you're creating in another inspiration venue—maybe a rooftop with skyline views, maybe a hidden garden studio in Capitol Hill. The energy of making art together is contagious.


By evening, you've created three pieces you'd actually hang on your wall. You've laughed with new friends about painting mishaps and shared discoveries. You've remembered what it feels like to make something just because you wanted to—and to do it in the company of others who understand.


This is Artloose. This could be your Saturday.

About Artloose


From the Experience Creator: Brittani Dinsmore


My creative path has never been a straight line. Who’s has?

 

I’ve lived in Seattle for 14 years, working as a marketer at tech companies, big and small. I loved the creativity that came with my involvement in design and product strategy, but have always longed for more tangible, hands-on art experience, like painting with different mediums. 



I often go to art walks and am amazed by what artists come up with for stunning visual 2D and 3D displays. I wondered if I could do it – asking, “If I gave myself the time and the materials, would I come up with just as cool of stuff?”
