Deadline is November 27, 2023!
Reminder: It’s time to select an artist for our Winter 2024 quarterly marketing materials (January, February, March). We invite our artists to send material that they consider to be an expression of the season, that will have staying power (since it is used for three months) and is family friendly.
Over 50 businesses participate in Art Walk, both exhibiting and those offering food and drink specials. West Seattle always has a lot going on, including fun Valentine’s Day promotions, and your art will get plenty of views.
If selected, your artwork will be featured in our social media, on printed posters displayed around West Seattle in participating businesses, and on walking maps available at participating businesses. We also strive to have the featured artist show their art all three months at businesses around West Seattle. This is a great opportunity to have your work displayed and promoted in our community, like “The Loop,” by Maggie Sharar in Q4!
The next poster could feature your art!
The West Seattle Art Walk is powered by businesses from Admiral Junction to Morgan Junction and beyond. Retail, service, food and drink establishments – something for everyone!
See details below or visit our blog post. Deadline is November 27, 2023.
Please submit work via this link.
All artists who share work will have the option to be featured in our quarterly Artist Library which is shared with businesses who are looking for an artist to show each month.

Please note: We will be closing our Call after November 27 and will prepare our Artist Library based on those who submitted their work for the Call. We welcome new submissions for the 2024 Q2 Call starting on February 1.
Pro Tip: If you have submitted before (even recently, like earlier in 2023), or if you have new work, please feel free to submit again! All new submissions go into the newest, updated edition of our Artist Library which is shared with participating businesses hosting artists. We do not carry artists over from one quarter to the next.
Art Throughout West Seattle! Art Walk spans from Alki and Admiral Junction, through Alaska Junction, to Morgan Junction and beyond. All throughout West Seattle are hubs of businesses and restaurants exhibiting art work or offering food and drink specials during Second Thursday Art Walk. Any art submitted in this Call for Artists will be shared with the participating businesses, broadening artists’ reach and exposure!
A note about the selection process: The Council meets in-person or virtually every quarter to choose the next quarter’s artwork for the marketing collateral and plan for upcoming months. Artists whose work will be shown at a participating Art Walk venue during the next quarter will be given more consideration in the selection process – so be sure to let us know if you are already committed to a business for showing. Portrait-oriented images work best for the 11″x17″ posters. We are also looking for works that have a look or feel that is seasonal and family-friendly in nature. We reserve the right to choose the artwork at our discretion.
