Art of Music Returns to the West Seattle Art Walk in September 2021!
Many of you may remember the delight of live music paired with Second Thursday Art Walk in the last half of 2019. Art of Music brought family-friendly instrumental and vocal music to outdoor and indoor venues in the Alaska Junction, thanks to the passion and drive of project originator and coordinator John Redenbaugh.
We are thrilled to announce that, after the hiatus of 2020, John is bringing Art of Music back – and now to Admiral as well as the Alaska Junction! Mark your calendars for these Second Thursday West Seattle Art Walks:
September 9 • October 14 • November 11 • December 9
The September 9 event will feature award-winning bassist and jazz vocalist Marina Christopher at the KeyBank Plaza in Alaska Junction and harpist Alyvia Miller at the Welcome Road Winery in Admiral Junction. Venues for October, November and December are being finalized as we write. Verity Credit Union will host in October. Each venue will have two sets of music from 6pm to 7:40pm, with a 10 minute break in-between. Click here for Marina’s Flyer and here for Alyvia’s flyer.

Invitation to Apply as a Musician.
The West Seattle Junction Association plans to present several performances by musicians in the heart of the West Seattle Junction and in the greater Admiral neighborhood to take place during the Junction’s Second Thursday Art Walks. This Call for Musicians is an invitation to apply to be considered for performing for 90 minutes at an Art of Music event (6:00 pm to 7:40 pm with one 10 minute break at the midway point). Applications will be accepted until performers are hired for all the 2021 events; the earlier your application, the more events for which you can be considered.
Art of Music is a presentation in conjunction with the West Seattle Junction Association.
