Gather: An Artist Trust Celebration

Join Artist Trust on Wednesday, November 4 from 6 - 8 pm at Georgetown Ballroom as we close out our 40th anniversary year and celebrate our 2026 grant recipients! Thanks to generous support from our community, this year we have granted $435,500 to 100 artists and reached thousands more through programming and resources. We can't wait to celebrate with you, our Artist Trust community of artists, donors, and supporters!

Program featuring a performance by Mehrdad Gholami (2025 Fellowship) and Eli Schille-Hudson, a puppetry performance by West of Roan, and a keynote speech by Artist Trust Founder Anne Focke will begin at 6:45 pm. You'll also have the opportunity to visit the nearby studios of artists Megan Prince and Debra Broz. Enjoy light bites and a hosted bar. Admission is offered with a sliding-scale donation* of $35 to $250. Proceeds benefit Artist Trust's funding, training, and resources for individual artists of all disciplines across Washington State.

*If you are a 2026 Artist Trust grant recipient or panelist, please email maya@artisttrust.org for your promo code.

Gather is presented with support from Amazon, JAS Design Build, and Fathom Architecture.
