The Shunpike Storefronts & Artist Residencies program transforms empty commercial spaces into vibrant hubs for creativity and community engagement. Launched in response to the 2008 economic downturn and expanded as part of Seattle Restored (2021-2025), the program has a 15-year track record of revitalizing urban neighborhoods by turning vacant storefronts into public art exhibitions and artist residencies. Storefronts South Lake Union has evolved into an ongoing temporary public art partnership with Amazon, displaying 12+ artists’ works a year in empty storefronts throughout South Lake Union.
