ART PARTY 4

We gathered 14 artists at the beautiful for our 4th residency filled with experimentation, connection, rest, and nourishment. There was an installation amongst the trees, a hip hop masterclass, saxophone layers and loops amidst the ferns, a sunrise DJ set and swim, love letters, poetry sharings, movement practices, medicine cards, an in progress performance, and plenty of conversation over shared meals.

ART PARTY Festival and Residencies is currently entirely volunteer run. We'd love to not only provide more free low-barrier residencies to artists who need the respite and support, but also to pay festival artists and producing team for their work.

We're only a couple of years old, but we're growing fast, and we would be honored if you would be a partner in that growth by including ART PARTY in your holiday giving. Even a small amount makes a huge difference for us.

Big fan, love your work!

Art Party Festival 2025 invited audiences into the woods, onto the shore, into the creek, and across the meadow to experience site-responsive art by artists from across disciplines. We are so thankful to the artists and audiences for their investment, love, generosity, and bravery as we collectively created our inaugural festival! Check out these photos (thanks to Brett Love) and stayed tuned for more updates here and on our website: https://www.artpartypnw.com/ BIG FAN, LOVE YOUR WORK!
