It's time for the follow up to Kaylyn Chileen's 2024 Cats of Ballard with MORE CATS OF BALLARD!

What new neighbourhood cats will you see in the show this year? Will there be any returning faces? Will your fav neighbour that was missed last year be represented year? Will your outer-neighbourhood cat be scorned once again? ALL THIS AND MORE you can find out opening night!

Join us Saturday, June 14, for the opening reception from 6-9pm!

Cheers to everyone who joined us last month for the opening reception of Stanza: Lost & Found, especially all of the wonderful poets who read their work! It's always lovely being able to see and hear artists present their work.

Many thanks for everyone's patience as we worked hard to assemble copies of the zine this year. It's always too easy to underestimate the amount of time it takes to print, cut, and assemble everything by hand, but we're so happy with how the zine turned out and hope you do too! There will only ever be 150 copies, so get one while we have them!

Turn over a leaf. Dig inside the couch cushions. Pick something off the bottom of your shoe. There are poems everywhere, for those willing to look.

Push/Pull's annual poetry collection, Stanza, invites wordsmiths to be the imagemakers and artists to be the poets. Using both word and image, artists are invited to submit work that crosses genres—however you choose to interpret it. Found poems, collage, poetry comics, and any other combination of language and visuals are welcome!

​Stanza: Lost & Found will be printed in up to 2 colors on Risograph. Contributors will receive a contributor copy and a $50 gift card for Push/Pull's printing services, art supplies, or classes.

We're super excited to be hosting the Seattle leg of Alex Krokus's LOUD & SMART & IN COLOR Book Tour! 

Join us Thursday, March 6, at 8:00 PM (after the first day of Emerald City Comic Con) to grab your copy of the book! Get it signed! And settle in for a hilarious comic reading by Alex and several guests, including Deb JJ Lee, Zine Hug, Brandon Lehmann, Boya Sun, and Jackson Barnes!

​It's gonna be great!

Cryptids are animals and creatures that might exist, but for which evidence of thus is disputed or unsubstantiated. From local legends like the Sasquatch to long known (or are they really known!?) misidentifications and hoaxes like the chupacabra and the jackalope, cryptids have inspired tall tales, fanciful folklore, and the hands of artists for years.

Join us on Saturday, February 8th for the opening reception from 6-9 PM!

Hex the patriarchy! The Push/Pull crew and friends are using this month's show to express rage, frustration, and a need for change in the current political environment.

Using the psychedelic medium of Risograph, artists explore the current state of feminism and gender politics in the face of changes America is currently going through. Come gather and hex the patriarchy with us. 😈
​
It's ALSO our 11th anniversary party! The last year has been all over the place and we kind of never got to do a 10th anniversary party, so join us for the 11th! Refreshments are provided!

Another year is coming to an end, and despite many hardships, there's always still good moments and things to reflect on. BE MERRY captures the good in ornament form. Come see dozens of miniature, giftable art pieces, along with select member work from this year!

Join us December 14th from 6-9 PM for the opening reception of our December show, Be Merry!

We'll have a variety of handmade ornaments and hangable art made by Push/Pull members, along with framed original works, all of which make fantastic gifts! You'll be able to take them right off the wall and home with you immediately, no coming back later! Opening night will be your best chance to have the pick of available art, so see you then!
