Hack the CD, Umoja PEACE Center, Heart Haven Artist Cooperative, and Africatown Preservation and Development Association will be opening a pop-up space at 23rd and Union.
For the past two months, this group of community stakeholders has been collecting feedback from a black board mural at the location, which was launched during the 2015 Umoja Fest and sponsored by Seattle Office of Arts and Culture. The response has been revealing, and our community has confirmed that they’d like to see a sense of Black pride, empowerment, and business.
We’d like to create an art gallery, retail space, and tech lounge in this pop-up space and we need your help!
For Work Party 1, we’ll be filling holes and painting the walls! Bring tools if you have them, but most importantly bring your hands and wear work clothes!
