Downtown Redmond Art Walk Returns to Downtown Park
REDMOND, WA - Redmond will host the Downtown Redmond Art Walk (DRAW) for a third year, beginning at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 18, in Downtown Redmond. This celebration of creativity and beauty brings together Redmond’s local artists and businesses for an evening of art and encourages community members to support local artists, merchants, and vibrant arts organizations.
From 4 – 7 p.m., Downtown Park will feature art installations, performances, and live mural painting curated by the City’s Cultural Arts Program. There will also be opportunities for the community to connect with City Councilmembers, and share their perspectives on the importance of art that will be incorporated into the Public Art Master Plan. Participating businesses will join in celebrating local talent through exhibitions, poetry readings, live music, and more.
“Downtown Redmond Art Walk showcases our community’s talented local artists and businesses,” said Mayor Angela Birney. “I’m excited we are continuing this event for a third year as we celebrate the dynamic and creative spirit of our city.”
In addition to the art in Downtown Park, the City will provide a map for self-guided tours of the participating businesses that will showcase artists that evening. This one-night experience is made possible thanks to a generous Arts Sustained Support grant from 4Culture.
