Now celebrating six categories, these annual awards reflect the values of Spokane Arts: Leadership, Collaboration, Imagination, Inclusion, Youth Arts Leadership, and Arts Advocacy.

“There were so many amazing people and organizations nominated for their efforts to enhance our artistic community this year,” said Spokane Arts Executive Director Skyler Oberst. “The Spokane Arts Commission had a tough time choosing just three nominees to honor in each category.”

“Emerging or established, young or old, on the edge or in the center – Spokane Arts strives to celebrate and recognize the wealth of participation in Spokane’s creative ecosystem,” Oberst said. “We cannot wait to name the winners and to celebrate all of the nominees at our annual Spokane Arts Awards Gala.”

Winners will be announced at this year’s Arts Awards Gala themed “The Arts Ecosystem” on Saturday, September 21. The event will be held from 6pm to 9:30pm at Hamilton Studios, 1427 W. Dean Ave., and will include a cocktail hour and live performances by area artists.

RICK SINGER: 43 YEAR PHOTGRAPHIC RETROSPECTIVE

The Chase Gallery in Spokane, WA, is thrilled to host “Rick Singer: 43 Year Photographic Retrospective” from September 6 – October 25, 2024.

This is a rare opportunity to see Rick Singer’s spectacular body of work from his 43-year career as Spokane’s preeminent portrait photographer, documenting the diverse people of Spokane. Portraits include graduating seniors, doctors, refugees, families, musicians, artists, and shop keepers.

In addition, this show will include Mr Singer’s gorgeous personal work of landscapes, abstract textures, and cemetery statuary.

Rick’s grandfather started the family business “Dutch’s” in Spokane in 1915. Rick Singer Photography studio was located in the old hotel above Dutch’s on Main Ave. Rick used the natural light , cracked plaster, and peeling wallpaper of the 1910 building as his inspiration and backdrops for his many years of sensitive portraits.

The Front Porch Rockers will play First Friday, September 6 from 6pm to 8pm at The Chase.
