We are lucky to be based out of Seattle, a city with a beautiful and energetic cultural scene. Support Small Seattle: Cultural Directory (below!) is a list of art and culture spaces in our community that need your help, in any way you can offer. Supporting locally-owned small businesses now will shape the future of our community (and yours!) when we all emerge and join each other again. Even following the social channels of your favorite spaces—to stay up-to-date on their latest developments and offerings—can be a small but much-needed boost.

Don't see your favorite cultural institution? Please let us know—and ask them to submit a form to be added to our list and included in our social channels.

"If we can honor that our dreams are infused with wisdom and healing, and turn towards them with this perspective, it can help us to open to a tapestry of empowering insights and understanding."

A little nostalgia might serve us well right now, so we sourced a few of our favorite spots to shop for vintage and consignment goods. Sustainable and chic—no better combo in our book!

"It is clear the fight to preserve protections for pre-existing conditions is on the ballot. The next Justice that goes on the Court will decide whether or not 135 million Americans—including my daughter—will still have protections despite pre-existing conditions."
