Tashiro Kaplan Artists Lofts opened in June of 2004 to provide 50 units of affordable housing and work space for artists and their families, and commercial space for arts organizations and arts-related businesses. Developed by Artspace Projects, Inc. and the Pioneer Square Community Association, the TK is conveniently located in the heart of historic downtown Pioneer Square in Seattle.

PATH WITH ART

Light appetizers will served as artists discuss their creative works. Art Walk participants are welcome and encouraged to attend. Bullivant is located on the 23^rd Floor of the Westlake Tower, 1601 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2300, Seattle 98101.
