YAKIMA, Wash. Artists based out of Central Washington will have their work on display as part of the ‘Windows Alive!‘ exhibit in Downtown Yakima. Located along the northside of Yakima Avenue between Hotel Maison and 3rd St, ‘Windows Alive!’ takes ordinary storefront windows and transforms them into an art gallery.
Five Washingtonians from the region were selected to participate based on their merits and impressive track records as developing artists. Each brings their own unique style to the project, incorporating a variety of mediums to capture the attention of anyone who walks past the display. Participants were awarded a $250 stipend for contributing to the display.
