With $18,000 raised last spring, Bushwick Northwest was able to bring STYLE program scholarships to several Title I schools regionally, hire an inclusive staff of teaching artists to help represent the students we serve, and present new programs focusing on social justice. These funds also helped expand The Bushwick Book Club Seattle's roster of talented local musicians, and build capacity for increased audience outreach and new partnerships with local scholars and organizations like Rain City Rock Camp, NewHolly Girls Group (newly established through Seattle Housing Authority), and WASAT.

This year we aim to raise $20,000 to further expand STYLE programs and continue broadening the teaching artist roster, while developing more Bushwick Book Club collaborations with local artists, scholars, and organizations that represent the vibrantly-creative communities we serve.

Come enjoy food, drink, song, and story as we celebrate another year delivering literature, music, and songwriting to the Seattle community while building the next generation of musicians and readers. We'll share more about how we've used our donors' support to reach further, and how we plan to grow. And if you can't make the event itself, you can still chip in - every contribution helps!
