SEATTLE — A non-profit in Seattle’s Central District is uplifting local Black artists and creatives. Arte Noir was founded by Vivian Phillips in May 2021. It started as an online publication. In September 2022, a brick-and-mortar location opened at the corner of 23rd and Union. “What we do here is we provide a home, a place in our historically black community, for black artists and black creatives to be showcased, to be supported, and to generate revenue,” said Executive Director Jazmyn Scott.

SEATTLE — For Black actors, the path to the spotlight can be challenging. “I think theaters get into this sort of rhythm of programming their plays, where it can be like, 'Oh, we're doing like the one Black show this season,” said Andrew Lee Creech, the creator of Last Drive to Dodge. “If you don't get that role, then your opportunities to act for that entire season are sort of limited.
