2017 Block Party at The Station

About This Grant

Friends of Block Party at The Station will organize a music and arts festival showcasing South Seattle artists and small businesses (Block Party at The Station). It will be held on June 17, 2017, from noon to 8pm, along 16th Ave S, between S. Bailey and Roberto Maestas Festival Street. The festival will spotlight marginalized communities. A majority of festival performers will be women and LGBTQ artists of color. The festival will also showcase Beacon Hill as an immigrant community in order to challenge anti-immigrant narratives and rhetoric.
