Event Information

A 3-week art installation, Mad Homes will convert half a block of Seattle’s North Capitol Hill neighborhood into a novel and dynamic exhibition. Redefining the way art is made and experienced, 11 local artists will create installations and sculptures on four adjacent home sites.

Prior to salvage and/or relocation, a group of neighboring homes, in North Capitol Hill, will be used by artists to create site specific installations for this year’s project. Artists are free to use both the interior and exterior spaces of the homes as their creative canvases to produce dynamic art installations. MadArt believes these homes will provide a novel and noteworthy venue for the public to view art. Artists will be provided a unique opportunity to work in a temporary space, without conventional gallery show constraints. The selected artists’ works will include energetic and innovative paintings and sculptures. MadArt’s goal on this art project is to provide unexpected enjoyment and a distinctive educational experience for the neighborhood and visitors, while providing local artists a valuable and rare opportunity to create artwork.
This year’s artists include: Troy Gua, Julia Haack, Meg Hartwig, Luke Haynes, Amanda Manitach, Ryan Molenkamp, Allan Packer, Jason Puccinelli in collaboration with Elizabeth Potter, Sutton Beres Culler, Laura Ward, & Allyce Wood.

Open from July 16 - August 7, Mad Homes will take place on Bellevue Avenue just off of Roy Street on Capitol Hill.
