Welcome to Seattle CoArts
We are an organization that prides ourselves on creating a community for all visual artists to meet and share our love of art. We do this through monthly meetings with a featured artist, regular workshops and an annual paintout, friendly monthly competitions (optional) and an annual juried show. We welcome you to join us as we boost our work through education and exhibit opportunities.

The May 2025 Local Workshop
with Barbara De Pirro
Create collage art using your own unique stash of painted papers! We will explore several techniques that can be used to create color, pattern, and texture on paper using a combination of acrylic paints, mediums & gels.
This workshop is designed to encourage experimentation, to learn the unique qualities of each acrylic product, and to explore both familiar & new techniques using each.
This workshop is open to beginners but also appropriate for more experienced artists.
