Pratt Fine Arts Center (Pratt), located in Seattle’s Central District, has been a community arts hub for the past fifty years. Pratt serves artists of all ages and abilities, year-round, with affordable classes and studios. Initially established by the City of Seattle, Pratt was named for the civil rights leader Edwin T. Pratt, a civil rights activist in Seattle and the Executive Director of the Seattle Urban League who was murdered in 1969.

This group exhibition includes more than seventy-five artists working in diverse media such as glass; sculpture in metal, stone, wood, and mixed-media; jewelry art; paper and felt-making; and 2D art including drawing, painting, and printmaking. Featured artists include former and current instructors, students, board members, and staff. This show celebrates and spotlights the impact that Pratt artists and supporters have made in the broader region since 1976.
