Thank you for signing up to volunteer at Washington Hall. Compared to our normal shows, Washington Hall concerts are bigger, with a unique, open floor experience in the grand venue.
The 'Seattle freeze’ took on a whole new meaning during the pandemic, and over the past year we’ve watched as event venues all across the city were forced to close. Thankfully, here at Abbey arts we’ve had phenomenal support from our community to keep us afloat, and now that we’re starting back up again, we want to keep that community front and center. This Fall, Abbey Arts is bringing us back to the arts, making it the perfect time to gather your friends, come out and reconnect with what really matters: each other.

Our mission is to curate vibrant & welcoming spaces where people of all ages and incomes can grow in their artistic & social development through arts & cultural experiences.

Description
We are a nonprofit arts organization presenting and curating creative events at unusual spaces around Seattle and at our home venue, Fremont Abbey Arts Center. We create experiences where people can learn & develop through education & performance in many different art mediums. Striving to be acommunity driven, volunteer powered organization in North Seattle, the Abbey is a comfortable & welcoming space where a wide variety of people from different income levels, skills, ethnicities & backgrounds interact. Both art students & the general public experience high quality performances by artists from Seattle and around the world. Abbey Arts programs are non-religious.
Built in 1914 the Fremont Abbey is a beautiful old brick church building (originally St Paul’s Lutheran) that went from being vacant in the late 90s, to being a temporary shelter, and then undergoing major renovations in late 2007. Major work culminated March 2008 with a Grand Re-opening party and ongoing improvements do continue each year. Abbey Arts Director, Nathan Marion ( www.LonelyBuildings.com), managed the renovation & "greening of the Abbey" project including final designs & interiors.
