TEXTILES WHEN DID YOU START DEVELOPING AN INTEREST IN ART AND TEXTILES? I was a very creative child and was involved in dance, visual art, and theater early on. Like most children, I had a very active imagina- tion, but I really decided that pursuing fine art was my path sometime in high school. I had incredibly supportive art teachers who strongly encouraged me to pursue my pas- sion and believed in my talents. I was also fortunate to have parents who supported my creative interests and believed in the impor- Making Textiles Sing tance and validity of the arts.

Kate Troyer took her degrees in art history and sculpture and carved out a niche in textile surface design, leading to the launch of Wippowillow textiles. I attended a liberal arts college and received a BA in sculpture and art history. It wasn’t until the end of my time as an undergraduate that I began experimenting with fabric as a sculptural medium—using textiles to create soft sculptures and wearable art. From there, I took some time off to travel and ended up working in a small town in North Dakota as an Artist in Residence. I continued experi- menting with soft sculpture, which sparked my interest in textile surface design. I re- ceived my master’s of fine arts in textile art and design from the University of Wiscon- sin with a concentration in large-scale textile print design. Since then, I designed a line of women’s dresses and handbags while regu- larly teaching classes at local art colleges. 6 AL 7 Wippowillow was born in the summer of shaped who I am, and therefore, my work is Wippowillow is a 2011 and has continued to grow and devel- highly influenced by both nature and story- combination of the words op every day.

    Square Feet 2013 Wrap-up Report Square Feet 2013 : a wrap-up report Published by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture in January 2014 Edited by Matthew Richter Event Photographs by Jenny Crooks Introduction Square Feet 2013 convened on Monday, November 18, 2013 to explore the idea of Cultural Districts as a way to support the work of artists and arts and cultural organizations in Seattle. The event was produced by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and 4Culture. Centered on a keynote address from creative placemaking expert Anne Gadwa Nicodemus, the day also featured presentations from twenty local projects in motion, and a working session that resulted in a $10,000 investment by the Office of Arts & Culture in an idea generated by the day’s attendees. Over 150 people, representing arts organizations, independent artists, funders, developers, property owners, architectural designers and consultants, universities, and local government took part in the day, which was hosted by the Lee Center for the Arts, the Northwest Film Forum, and the Velocity Dance Center, all on 12th Avenue on Capitol Hill. A note about the text of this report: We solicited the presenters’ remarks following the event for inclusion in this report. Some of the speakers had prepared remarks, some spoke from general notes, and some spoke extemporaneously. We have attempted to present all of these in a format that makes sense to the reader. Matthew Richter, Cultural Space Liaison from the Office of Arts & Culture, started the day with some opening remarks: Welcome to Square Feet 2013, a day-long event produced by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and 4Culture.

Our city is already one of the most vibrant and creative in the nation. People are drawn to Seattle’s thriving arts and music scenes and the rich diver- sity of its communities. Businesses are attracted to Seattle because we are an international cultural hub. We understand both the real human value of art and its economic potential. Here in Seattle, we make the arts a priority. Last year, the City invested almost $2.5 million in the arts. We funded more than 300 different arts and cultural organizations and artists that reached over 1.5 million people. This year our support for the arts is growing. With support from City Council, we have added $150,000 for our Arts Mean Business program, which underwrites jobs for cultural organizations serving historically under-represented communities. And as part of the Creative Advantage program, we are investing $500,000 to bring arts education back to the classroom. These investments in the arts improve educational opportunity and achievement, foster economic development, and contrib- ute to our ongoing pursuits of social and economic justice. Thank you for supporting our city with your time, energy and vision.
