Current Membership

Push/Pull is a cooperative gallery. Each member participates in the running of the gallery. We don't have employees or bosses. Here's our current crew!

Maxx Follis-Goodkind, Director
Maxx handles most of the business side of Push/Pull. She's the one replying to emails and making sure the taxes get paid on time. She started Push/Pull in 2013 with a vision of having a space for underground artists and illustrators. When she has time she also makes some of the art, patches, comics and other items in the gallery.

Jasper, Shop Cat
You won't find Jasper at Push/Pull every day, but he is a frequent weekend visitor and is Head Greeter when he's present. He's friendly, so feel free to give him pets - he'll let you know with a warning bite when he's done.

Agatha, Mascot
It was a cold February night in 2015 when we found Agatha left on one of our A-board signs in Greenwood. We gave her a new home, a fresh coat of paint and made her our mascot. To see the real Agatha in person just visit us in Ballard and ask about her.

Interested in Joining?

We get asked all the time -- how do I join? Well, first, yes we do have a screening process so that we can determine if you're a good fit. We're a co-operative and everyone has to work together towards our goals. Members sign on for a minimum of six months and are expected to work on-site at least 4 days a month. If you think you've got what it takes to make great art, contribute to the community, and work at building a better, weirder world, go on and apply!
