Seattle Restored
We are partnering with Seattle Good Business Network and Shunpike to match small business owners and artists with vacant commercial storefronts to host pop-up shops and art installations.
We want to encourage people to visit downtown Seattle and other commercial areas to support local businesses and artists — particularly Black, Indigenous, and other entrepreneurs or artists of color. These projects also benefit neighborhoods and property owners by creating vibrant, engaging streetscapes.
Seattle residents and artists can participate in the following types of activations:
- Pop-Up Shop – Run your own business in a vacant commercial space.
- Art Installation – Exhibit and sell your artwork via QR code from a street-facing window display.
- Artist Residency – Share space with other artists to create and sell your work.
Visit the Seattle Restored website for more information about the program, upcoming events, and how to participate.
