For immediate release

Feb. 6, 2025 – SEATTLE – Shunpike’s Storefronts program, a public art exhibition and pop-up initiative, was launched in response to the 2008 economic downturn. Since its inception in 2010, the program has evolved into a year-round, paid opportunity for artists, made possible through partnerships with both public and corporate entities. Since 2013, Shunpike has proudly collaborated with Amazon to bring dynamic art installations to their South Lake Union campus. This year, the program will showcase the work of 16 selected artists. 

Following an extensive panel review process, the following artists have been chosen to exhibit their work in the upcoming year. 

2024 Round 1 Artists (on view February 19 – August 10, 2025): Jay Stoneking, Kalina Winska, Jessica Lipscomb, Alison Grimm, Audineh Asaf, Judy Lee, Heather Sparks, and Nikita Mehta.

2024 Round 2 Artists (on view August 27, 2024 – February 4, 2026): Po-Yan Tsang, Fin’es Scott, Joline El-Hai, Charde’ Brown, Roldy Aguero Ablao, Lila Thomas, Bella Kim, and Yaminee Patel

Join Shunpike and the exhibiting artists for an Art Walk through South Lake Union on Thursday, April 24 from 6-8 PM.

Shunpike empowers artists through equitable access to vital expertise, opportunities, and business services. We envision a community where independent artists and arts groups thrive creatively and economically, and where their work is widely valued as fundamental to the cultural, social, and economic wellbeing of Washington state.
