Seattle City Club
The pre-recession construction boom resulted in an overabundance of space. How are the development and business sectors coming together with individual artists and arts organizations to get creative? What can the cultural sector do to benefit the long-term economic picture of our community? Is there a way to bring space to artists and new life and capital to existing space? Moderator Marcie Sillman, of KUOW 94.9 FM, will lead a panel discussion comprised of Kate Joncas, president of the Downtown Seattle Association; Jim Kelly, executive director of 4Culture; Seattle City Councilmember Nick Licata; and Kerry L. Nicholson, senior managing director of Legacy Partners Residential, Inc. CityClub’s next Arts & Culture Series panel discussion, From Vacancy to Vibrancy—The Creative Use of Space, will take place from noon to 1:30 pm on Monday, April 19 at Rainier Square Atrium.
