Folk and traditional arts are the bedrock of artistic and cultural communities, and Humanities Washington and ArtsWA are pleased to co-sponsor the Center for Washington Cultural Traditions and its Heritage Arts Apprenticeship Program, with significant support from the Washington State Legislature. The Heritage Arts Apprenticeships Program (HAAP) supports individuals seeking to preserve traditional practices important to their community, heritage, and identity. These may include music, dance, visual arts, language practices, verbal arts, traditional skills, foodways, occupational arts, storytelling and much more, and are learned within communities that share family, ethnic, tribal, regional, occupational, or religious identity. The program provides a supportive mentoring environment, networking opportunities, as well as important professional and leadership skills. To date, 56 Master/Apprentice pairs have participated in the program (explore past apprenticeship teams here).

Laziness Does Not Exist: A Conversation with Dr. Devon Price by Seattle University Nonprofit Leadership In Laziness Does Not Exist, Dr. Devon Price explores the social and psychological underpinnings of the 'laziness lie' -- a centuries old belief that falsely says our worth is determined by our productivity, our limitations are weaknesses, and no matter how much we do it is never enough. Price traces the roots of this lie in the United States to the legacies of Puritanism, the institution of slavery, industrialization, and our current digital work culture that blurs boundaries between work and life. Pained Vistas by Jon Feinstein and Roula Seikaly of Humble Arts Foundation Pained Vistas includes photography and video that engages landscapes framed by conflict, trauma, and beauty. From the legacy of systemic racism in the United States to the Holocaust in Europe and the entrenched conflict between Palestinians and Israelis, to the worldwide reckoning on climate change and many others, Pained Vistas looks to the potential for picturesque views to be fraught with catastrophe and contradiction. Timothy White Eagle and The Violet Triangle: Revival by On The Boards Revival is an immersive ritualistic theater and installation work by the well-known Seattle-based Indigenous artist Timothy White Eagle and his team of collaborators.This new theater work is rooted in ritual theater and explores one of the oldest and most universal myths, the story of a hero being swallowed alive and then returned, which has appeared around the world. The artists use this ancient story to ponder what it means to be living in our contemporary moment through isolation and longing for community. Note: This is an in-person show with space limited to 66 people per performance. Embodied Change: South Asian Art Across Time by Seattle Asian Art Museum Spanning a period from the third millennium BCE to today, the works in this exhibition offer metamorphic and compelling images of the human body. Most of the artists utilize female and feminized forms in a myriad of ways, including as a devotional object, as a mode of self-representation, and to question the safety of public spaces. #DoTheWork Arts Leadership Formation Part of our commitment, as Arts Leaders, is to remain open and teachable in the formation of our leadership posture and approach.
