Interview with Alex Connelly, Painter

This body of work has all been created over the past two years during my time in Seattle. I have been inspired by this new city, the energy and nature that surrounds us. I develop my shows up until the day that I set them up so there may be some surprises in the mix! My shows always change from what I think they will look like to what they actually look like. It is absolutely essential to curate the pieces that fit the space. A paint stroke on a canvas is to the canvas what a painting in a space is to the space as a whole. Each painting has purpose and each piece must be hung in a way that develops a harmony within the environment of the show. READ MORE

Member Q+A with Andrew Means

Today I try to pursue the things that truly nourish and excite me, which tend to have some amount of challenge or jeopardy but much higher rewards. I try to dispense with the things that are mindless (e.g. Instagram, Reddit) and force myself to be intentional and schedule time for the things I love. I still waste a fair amount of time, but it’s surprising how much extra you can do when you clear out some of the chaff. READ MORE

The Weather Report FebruaryTschabalala Self is a 26-year-old artist who has been getting a good bit of attention these days, most notably for her whirlwind ascension into the public sphere after getting her MFA from the Yale School of Art program in 2015.

Celebrated LA Chef Jesse Barber joins Napa Valley Vintner Lorenzo Trefethen in Seattle for an evening of remarkable food and wine hosted by Michael Hebb and The Cloud Room.

Barber, Trefethen and Hebb have been hosting dinners together for the past decade, in fact they even built a table together from the historic Trefethen oak tree after it was toppled by a storm. The dinners have occurred on several continents, but August 13th is the first time these three friends will gather a table in Seattle.

Jesse Barber has cooked and helmed the stove in the most renowned restaurants in the U.S., The French Laundry, Per Se, The Tasting Kitchen, clarklewis - and opened his own establishments in LA - always receiving absurd amounts of adoring praise. His passionate food stands outside of the run-of-the-mill farm to table genre and has a personality and style that is timeless and always pushing at the edge of what we know about food.

Lorenzo Trefethen may be the most joyous person in the wine business and he has every reason to be. The third generation family-run vineyard that bears his name has won countless awards, famously triumphing over the French in 1979 at the Gault Millau Wine Olympics and earning the distinction of "Best Chardonnay in the World". In a valley of jacked-up overly-oaked international-style wines, Trefethen continues to craft wines that showcase restraint and a sense of place. Led by Lorenzo and his sister Hailey, Trefethen has quietly become a pioneer in sustainability, adding people, not chemicals, and without fanfare converting all winery operations to solar power.

Facing Homelessness / The Block Project

This special event marked the unveiling and launch of the BLOCK Project, an integrated solution to homelessness powered by the compassion of community.

Joined by founders Rex Hohlbein and Jenn LaFreniere , and renowned chefs Jon Sundstrom and Brendan Mcgill

Cuniform + Dress for Success

Dress for Success Seattle helps disadvantaged women achieve financial independence with dignity. For the past 15 years, from their current downtown location, they have provided women with free professional attire in order to help them gain and/or maintain jobs and resources. Clothing should never be a barrier to success. Now, in order to keep its doors open to our community, Dress for Success Seattle is in urgent need of funds and a new space.


The founders of cuniform, Christine Tran and Colton Winger, will be hand-selecting garments from this massive clothing inventory, available for purchase at wallet-friendly prices. Buying and wearing recycled clothing is not only the most sustainable way to shop, but you’ll also have two professional stylists around to answer any and all of your fashion questions, and ALL proceeds will go directly to Dress for Success Seattle.
