Welcome to Seattle Center
In the Eye of the Sound
Utilizing a responsive canvas mentality, Big World Breaks' intergenerational percussion collection, the BWB Drumline, will align with multi-medium visual artist Perri Rhoden to explore how composed and improvised rhythms can engage with a live art piece being born as a public, live action visual scoring. In the Eye of The Sound, directed by BWB founder Aaron Walker-Loud, is orchestrated to help build healthier intergenerational and interdisciplinary connectivity through the vehicles of percussion and visual art - driven by seasoned creatives who are committed to seeing cultural innovation flourish in Seattle beyond our lifetimes.

Artists At the Center is a multi-year collaboration between Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and Seattle Center, with support from Uptown Arts & Culture Coalition and the communities adjacent to Seattle Center campus. The project is made possible by a 10-year grant from Climate Pledge Arena and Seattle Kraken.
Join us as we introduce emerging and established artists and celebrate their talent on a newly revitalized Seattle Center campus. Artists are given a performance opportunity, allowing them to connect with new audiences, display their talents and advance their careers. Visitors to campus and the surrounding neighborhood benefit from surprising and delightful pop-up performances throughout the year. Each year, artists are selected with an equity and social justice lens, ensuring equitable representation for underserved and emerging artists. Artistic genres include music, dance, theater, demonstrations, and multi-disciplinary work.
