Established in 1995, Urban ArtWorks engages youth, artists, and communities In the creation of public art that inspires connections and honors their voices. In 2022, we worked with 2,685 individuals to create 126 public artworks in 24 Seattle neighborhoods and 12 cities, including 104 paid youth apprentices, 65 local and teaching artists, and over 1,200 volunteers! We prioritize working with individuals facing barriers to accessing art education and employment. Our 2022 youth apprentices are: 69% from BIPOC communities, 55% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, 61% LGBTQIA+.

We're thrilled to announce that the talented Perry Porter @perrypaints will be our emcee for Brush & Brunch! Perry has been a Teaching Artist for several programs, including this summer's Rainier View MAP! Hailing from Tacoma, WA, Perry is not just a talented painter but also a gifted songwriter. He specializes in watercolor portraiture, with a unique focus on women of color immersed in surreal and manga-style settings. His vibrant colors and free-flowing style reflect not only a sense of playfulness but also an extraordinary level of discipline and control.
