Follow the Seattle Arts Voter Guide! I co-founded this guide in 2019 with amazing MFA and MPA students at SeattleU. For the 2025 primary election, we contacted Seattle Mayor and City Council candidates, and KC Executive candidates, for their arts platforms. We have received 11 platforms so far!

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
